Your support helps us to tell the story

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.

Google Calendar appears to have stopped working properly.

Instead of seeing their schedule, users were shown an error message.

“There was an error,” it read. “Please try again. That’s all we know.”

There was no update posted to Google’s Workspace status page, which tracks outages on services such as Gmail as well as Calendar.

The outage came amid major problems at Amazon Web Services, which was hit by technical issues that reverberated around much of the internet. There is no indication the two problems are connected.

Shortly after, the site and app seemed to return to normal.
