Verizon reported a fiber cut in Brooklyn via Twitter, although it’s not clear if that issue is responsible for the entire outage. The internet service provider didn’t have any estimate when the problem spot would be fixed.
Neither Verizon nor Comcast, another major internet service provider, immediately responded to requests for comment.
People posting on Twitter reported having issues connecting with various online services from Washington to Boston, a broad swath that includes key U.S. government services, as well as major financial companies such as Fidelity Investments.
The outage is affecting major internet and cloud providers as well as major sites such as Google and Facebook.
