OGE admin: "We're just overwhelmed with traffic right now." In 2016 they had 300k page requests. In first 40 days of this year, *5 million*.
.@OfficeGovEthics website outage due to too much traffic, not malicious activity, site admin tells me.

I asked if OGE planned to buy more servers. Was basically told no. “Our budget’s almost nonexistent.”
-
Site admin: “We’re trying to come up with ways that we can offload some of the traffic.”
-
This AM they sent a note to agency ethics officials with links to OGE-hosted training videos. The videos are obviously huge files.
-
OGE trying to offload training videos onto Dropbox-like service to reduce strain. Around 100k ppl have (& may be clicking) the video links.

Here's a thread from OGE on the outage. Phone and email also apparently overwhelmed.https://twitter.com/OfficeGovEthics/status/829772866019348480 …

I was told OGE would have to redo the training videos in some way to put them on YouTube. Not sure what that means exactly.https://twitter.com/ski/status/829776211068989440 …

Depends on what you consider malicious activity. Donald Trump's Presidency is malicious activity. https://twitter.com/ericgeller/status/829774454637076480 …
@ericgeller -
also the office of government ethics needs to investigate everyone in that administration.
-
They're apparently working on a minimal budget...which is terrifying.
-
