> When asked by multiple lawmakers why Equifax set up this separate site, Smith said the company's main domain was not architected to process the enormous traffic the company knew would come its way after the announcement. In all, Smith said, the independent breach-response site has had 400 million consumer visits, which would have crumpled the main site.

Apparently they've never heard of subdomains, static pages, reverse proxies, and <insert many other solutions anyone on HN could come up with off the top of their heads>?
