Read a few older articles, seems if you use npm login and then install the package it works. You can create a user here: https://www.npmjs.com/login?next=/package/npm-cli-login/access

Perhaps logging in simply links the registy? Anyway it did the trick for me.

The issue is resolved! npm install @sindresorhus/is works now! There are still other packages which have such issues, npm is taking look into it to fix them as well.

I believe it’s an issue with npm
