Same here.

Your IP: 91.64.84.221 Error code: 16 > This request was blocked by the security rules

It might be requests from outside the United States.

It seems like someone or some DDoS detection blocked either everything or all foreign IPs.

Looks like the "GDPR doesn't allow to spy on users, let's block anyone who could be covered by it" kind of block.

I've been able to view the ERCOT site before, so probably not.

At this point it makes sense for them to prioritize getting information out to residents rather than us foreigners with an idle interest. :)

Yup, guess they turned on some crisis plan. Which is targeted more at those evil hackers outside the US than at an actual capacity problem :)

Same here, both my European (.fi) home ISP and mobile data IPs are blocked.

Looks like internet is going to be partitioned one way or another. The time where any (non-loggedin) web site are accessible are coming to an end. Thanks a lot of scrappers and DDOS attack guys. Alway takes a few bad apples to ruined it for rest of us.
