Every thought was tracked I was made paranoid', Harry tells court

"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."

"Prince Harry was left feeling paranoid beyond belief after the publisher of the Daily Mail tracked his every move, thought or feeling, a major court case against the Mail publisher has been told. The Duke of Sussex said alleged methods carried out by Associated Newspapers Limited (ANL) including obtaining flight details and phone conversations regarding ex-girlfriend Chelsy Davy created a massive strain on his personal relationships and created distrust and suspicion."

"King Charles' youngest son is joined by Sir Elton John and his husband David Furnish, campaigner Baroness Doreen Lawrence, politician Sir Simon Hughes and actresses Sadie Frost and Liz Hurley in alleging ANL had a practice of clear systematic and sustained use of unlawful information gathering. Their lawyers claim employees of the company, which publishes the Daily Mail and the Mail on Sunday, listened to phone calls and voice messages while also obtaining medical records by deception between 1993 and 2018."

The Independent covers topics from reproductive rights to climate change and Big Tech and operates without paywalls, relying on donations to fund on-the-ground reporting and documentaries like 'The A Word'. Prince Harry told a court he was left feeling paranoid after the Daily Mail publisher allegedly tracked his every move and used methods that included obtaining flight details and phone conversations about ex-girlfriend Chelsy Davy, which strained personal relationships and bred distrust. Several public figures joined his claim that Associated Newspapers Limited engaged in systematic unlawful information gathering. Lawyers allege employees listened to calls and voice messages and obtained medical records by deception between 1993 and 2018. This included one journalist writing a draft story about Ms Frost's ectopic pregnancy.
