The Lying SOB The cracks in Netflix's position began appearing last fall, when T-Mobile introduced its Binge On initiative that exempts certain streaming video services, including Netflix's, from its customers' monthly data caps. Netflix has said in the past this so-called zero-rating perk is not a net neutrality issue. But Binge On, which caps all non-Wi-Fi streams to 480p, has repeatedly caused issues for T-Mobile, with Legere publicly fighting with the Electronic Frontier Foundation over whether Binge On constitutes throttling. Meanwhile, the FCC may open a federal investigation into zero-rating practices to see if they violate net neutrality principles.
The news complicates Netflix's image(GREAT!!!)
After T-Mobile CEO John Legere accused his rivals of throttling Netflix video last week, the streaming video service came out and admitted it was slowing down its own streams, according to a report today from The Wall Street Journal. Netflix has, for more than five years, capped its video streams at 600Kps for telecoms around the world, including AT&T and Verizon, to "protect consumers from exceeding mobile data caps,"
(NO YOU DIDN'T YOU WERE SCREWING WITH ULTRAFLIX CHANCE TO COMPETE ...YOU SOB)
