Outage disrupts legal work and government communications

The outage showed up in court filings too. Axios reported that DOJ lawyers asked for an extension in a case brought by Rep. Joyce Beatty, saying the outage prevented necessary coordination. In a separate filing, Beatty’s team acknowledged being affected as well. The Philippine Supreme Court said it was affected, while congressional communications were left in a holding pattern on Thursday during the Outlook outage. Municipal governments in Austin and Jacksonville, among others, reported email impacts; some also reported effects on phone systems.
