One America News website down?
I get a 'gateway timed out' message every time.

What I'm seeing, is a problem with the website's certificate. Evidently the old one expired end of May, and there is a question of validity of the issuer of the new certificate.

I wouldn’t doubt it after the idiots at ESPN.com ran a negative story yesterday about OAN and OK State coach Mike Gundy.

You mean how a player doesn't want to play for Gundy because he was wearing and OAN t-shirt WHILE FISHING!!!

OK Chuba...dont play...transfer to Evergreen State to pursue your degree in Social Justice Warfare.

ITS A FRICKING T-SHIRT!!! Its not like he murdered a cop, or firebombed a car...oh wait that stuff is OK now...

Yeah I got the 'news' of the great T shirt abomination when looking for OANN. When the shortcut I use didn't work, I thought maybe they changed domains or something.

Looks like they're going to need a lot more bandwidth.

DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attacks are nasty, if that's what's going on.

They've been small potatoes, but now they have garnered attention which willl ultimately work in their favor. They just need to upgrade their network.

In the long run, this will be viewed as a good thing.

I wonder if it's actually a side-effect from this?

Outages Across the US Blamed on Network Configuration Changes
(June 15, 2020)
Numerous service outages across the US on Monday, June 15, affected mobile providers, ISPs, streaming services, social media platforms and games. While there has been some speculation that the problems were the result of a massive distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack, a tweet from Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince said the cascading failures were caused by “T-Mobile … making some changes to their network configurations … [that] went badly.”


From one of my computer and network security newsletters, so no URL. Sorry.

As for how one player making changes can affect the entire Internet: Yes, it can, and does, happen. The explanation is long and very, very technical.

Well, it *is* isitdownrightnow.com Wink

And, yes, it would appear OANN is down right now. In fact it would appear to be more than just OANN. Looks like a peering point to their network may be OTL.

It's back on. FYI

So, does anybody know what really happened to them?

I just brought it up, but it was exceedingly slow. Was very slow last night, too. isitdownrightnow.com thinks it's down.

In answer to Q's question: I haven't seen anything, but I'm no longer wired-in to North American network (Internet) operations like I used to be.

It acts like a DDoS in progress, but it could also be network operations glitches, wonky hardware, or incompetence.
