1. Netflix describes how Verizon is at fault
2. Verizon lays out in astonishing detail how they're not the problem
3. Level 3 Wades in and uses their data to show that, yes they are
4. And Verizon admits yes, indeed, it's their fault
While I haven't read everything, unfortunately I think it's not really Verizon's fault - It's that video has broken the Internet.
When the (censored) big ISP's claim "up to XX Mb/sec", they're not lying - they're leaving out an important point "depending on availability".
Their claimed speed doesn't hold up if everyone wants it at the same time, and certainly not going to the same site, and it wasn't designed for HD video for all of them.
Like I've always said. If everyone on the planet wants video at the same time, we need a new internet.
Take that, cord cutters!
