        @BoingBoing Sorry but that's not proof that they throttle Netflix. That's proof that their favored transit path to Netflix is at 100% util.

        @socks_the_fox @BoingBoing @VerizonFiOS That's not how BGP Routing works. BGP Routing does not pay attention to utilization.

        @StoryofEverest It's a congested interconnect not throttling. You can debate who's fault it is from there.

        @BoingBoing @rockitude God this pisses me off (and rightly so). I hope YouTube and Netflix ramp up the “ISP Shaming” notifications.

        @mpkirkland it still only looks like that if you don't know anything about networking AND didn't read the OP.

        @BoingBoing @wilw Useless test. Means nothing. Verizon hub is passing 1000 or more Nflix streams and bandwidth is all used. VPN has 1.
