alt Hacker News> With more than 5 million downloads since its launch, the app has helped block more than 3.7 million stolen or lost mobile phones, while more than 30 million fraudulent connections have also been terminated.
I might be reading this wrong but these numbers seem very weird. Did more than half the people who downloaded the app block a stolen phone? And did each person who downloaded the app terminate 6 fraudulent connections?

That much is believable, if not on the low side. Spam there is intense.
It's not rare to have multiple phone numbers registered to a person's name fraudulently in India. Therefore, in this aspect the app will list out all the connections under the user's Aadhar (Indian Digital ID).
