Dear colleagues, friends and visitors of the mobile-review.com resource!

For last days the Mobile-Review.com website is subject to constant DDOS attacks from unknown persons. Several tens of thousands of computers from all over the world are involved; these are “infected” machines or, as they are called, botnets. Since the first attack, which led to the site being unusable due to the channels being fully loaded, the attack pattern has changed many times. Starting from an attack on individual machines, ending with an attack on the entire subnet in which the Mobile-Review.com resources are located.

The attackers hope that by disabling the Mobile-Review.com website, they will not allow readers to receive objective information about events in the world mobile communications, read independent reviews devices and communicate on forums. Considering that such attacks can be carried out by individuals or small groups of people, we consider this incident as attempt to censor the Internet . More than 200,000 of our readers from all over the world visit the site daily to receive up-to-date information, or simple communication, are deprived of information. These attackers set themselves against society. From censorship of objectionable publications or articles, there is only one small step to attempting total control over various media, imposing one’s own vision of the world, in one’s own selfish or political interests. The danger of such a development of events is difficult to underestimate. Considering that tools for a DDoS attack are free, both individual fans of a particular brand and any company with sufficient resources to implement it can be involved in it. Unfortunately, with this type of attack, it is almost impossible to track the attackers, as well as to legally prove their guilt. This spring, similar attacks were carried out against other media outlets, for example, Ekho Moskvy and the website of the Kommersant newspaper.

At the time of the first attack, an anonymous message was sent to the Internet pager of the editor-in-chief of Mobile-Review.com, saying that behind the attack on the resource were Apple fans and this is a kind of revenge for the iPhone and its assessment on the pages of the publication. It is possible that this is true, or it is possible that the message was sent in order to make the situation even more confusing. It is no secret that “edgy”, problematic materials that many people do not like often appear on the pages of the publication. Behind Lately there were a lot of such materials - we consider it our duty to tell our readers and subscribers not only about various new products and news mobile world, but also to warn about certain facts that interfere comfortable work with different electronic gadgets, and may also cause harm to consumers of products and services.

The attack on Mobile-Review.com is unprecedented in its scale and persistence. That's why We believe it is necessary to draw the attention of both the online community and our readers to the fact of censorship of objectionable points of view. If you do not express your point of view on the events taking place today, then tomorrow you will consume only the information that they consider necessary and possible to provide to you. This statement may seem excessive and far-fetched, but it is not. From small events big things are created. Today Mobile-Review.com is attacked and readers cannot get to us, tomorrow it will be another resource, and so on. Together and only this way, we can stop this practice.

We do not have ready-made solutions on how to implement our plans, make the Internet better and protect all publications and readers from such censorship. We will be glad if our colleagues, readers, ordinary people will express their points of view on this problem. Everyone is on their own resource, forum, corner of the network that they visit. The problem is worth protecting yourself from the possibility of future censorship.

At the moment, the site's editors do not have a ready-made action plan for how to counter such threats in the future. Technical plan current events is obvious and we are making every effort to return to a normal rhythm of work. The editorial office works in normal mode, materials are coming out. From time to time we restore the site and hope to finally win in the near future. You can express your point of view in my personal blog by the address eldarmurtazin.livejournal.com.
