That's how a telecommunications company can EXTORT money, using their OWN CUSTONERS as hostages, even though those customers have paid fully for a service that exceeds this speed and capacity, by THROTTLING and then creating a SPEED LANE!
That evidence does not prove what you think it does. Plenty of guys in the business believe that NETFLIX is the one who “flipped the switch.” Whether they prove their case to everyone’s satisfaction, I can’t say, but it is clear the guilt can go in either direction.
