My IT source's explanation:

"There is an active cyberattack and the media is refusing to cover it. Mostly DDoS. No real damage to servers, just inability to handle traffic to legit users. OANN is operated by Herring Networks Inc. All of their servers are under attack."

DOJ will do nothing and continue masturbate to fantasies of removing/defeating Trump.

Log all the DOS packets for future forensics. Data-mine the logs for the largest aggregate packet senders. Have your lawyers send them lawsuits for civil damages.

Even if they claim they are innocent or unwitting victims of a server hijack, they, and their service provider should have recognized the massive insecure traffic and mitigated it. Lack of security on high bandwidth servers is no excuse.

The internet in general has been screwy the past couple of days. I think China is about to throw a hissy fit.

Have been watching OANN, most of the morning, without any interruptions....nor have they mentioned anything about being ‘under a cyber attack’.
