Ask HN: Does HN block mobile browsers?

3•pbohun•2h ago
Recently I have been unable to visit hn from my mobile phone over the cellular network. I have standard Android and I've tried multiple browsers including Firefox, Chrome, and Brave. I don't need or want to login while I'm about so I was trying to reach the site without an account. If I'm connected to a wifi network then everything works.

Is this the result of a method to keep out bots that is over zealous?

I was able to load up this page in a private browser (to be logged out) over cellular on an iPhone.

This might be something with your phone.

I'd say it's an IP or subnet block, unrelated to the type of browser. Maybe automatic block of crawler (too many page requests in short time). If you know your IP address (e.g. https://ipinfo.io/ip) email the moderators. hn@ycombinator.com

Hi! I have the same issue (Orange France mobile network). It might be IPv6-related?
