From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Community Fibre, the London-based internet company, appears to be suffering an outage.
Customers across London reported that they were unable to get online on Thursday evening and into Friday morning.
Not all users were affected by the problems. But some in south and west London reported that they were unable to get online.
The apparent outage had lasted for hours already at the time of publication.
Community Fibre runs a service status website intended to show updates on any outages. But that page claimed there was “No known/current network issues reported” on Friday morning.
“Very disappointed that it seems the whole of South London is down but your website says everything is fine,” one customer wrote to the company on Twitter/X. “What a total disgrace.”
The company did not immediately respond to a request for further information.
