    It's very bad for Airtel Jio to ignore such requests. By taking such request they should be able to crack down how these requests are generated. It might be possible that they themselves wants to shutdown or takedown gsmarena. Who knows. It's not possible to generate so many requests by one user with so many ipaddress.

      If this is in fact malicious, watch out for possible hack of your database as well

        Hey Reliance Jio and Airtel please get a grip of those baddies & close them down.

        There, that should do it 🤣

        I bet Jim Browning could sort this out. 🌈Peace!

            Strange how Indians get riled up for specifications, opinions on tech and such, whilst getting BETTER choices and OVERALL ** BETTER** mid-rangers and flagships then most of the west, but yet act like this..
            Wishing luck to recover soon

              Oddly enough the website has been fine for me, the app not so much. This explains why, wonder why the attack tho..

                i mean the website is still functioning well, just takes 2-3 seconds, their attempts were futile lol

                    Someone may be messing with your site in order to get more visits on theirs... Play it nice Indians. You can get more views without affecting others 😉

                      Sorry for your trouble. These bad actors are not the normal people from India. Rather ther are paid employees belonging to the IT-cell of a bad political party in power. These guys have really polluted the internet.

                        Thank you for the heads up. Will use vpn. Can you try contacting cyber crime portal of India? May be they will help

                          90% of visitors on this website are of course Indian.

                              Checked on Vodafone Idea (Vi), 3rd largest telecom provider in India. GSMArena works fine. Are you also blocking JioFiber, Airtel Broadband users?

                                      Someone must have said something about Lava that got all the Indians furious. Just for your knowledge, it wasn't me this time 😂
