Yep, it’s being reported on, too.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2022/10/26/treasurydirect-website-crash-i-savings-bonds/

> With a Friday deadline approaching, savers trying to buy inflation-protected I bonds — which pay a guaranteed 9.62 percent — are crashing a Treasury Department website.

> This isn’t the first time the site has crashed. It happened in May when the nearly 10 percent rate was announced. The Treasury Department has also had problems keeping up with the volume of calls from people having trouble buying I bonds.
