We at GreenNet add our voices to the urgent calls for Alaa Abd el-Fattah’s freedom. The human rights and digital rights campaigner has been on dry hunger strike in an Egyptian prison since Sunday.

Since the beginning of October APC have been convening on Thursdays on social media (mostly Twitter, also Facebook and Instagram) around ICTs and sustainability / the environment. Every #EcoThursday we've had interesting conversations - so far we've touched on the impact of e-waste and ways to address it, extractivism and alternatives to it, and the right to repair and reuse.

On Friday 22nd and Saturday 23rd November 2019 GreenNet's website and most of our online services, including most of our customers' websites, went offline for several hours on two occasions. Our technicians became aware of the outage on Friday lunchtime and worked remotely and at our data centre until the small hours of Saturday morning to identify the fault and restore access to websites and emails.
