i never understood how people thought netflix was for net neutrality in the first place.
their whole argument was 'we are big, we desire special privilege to put pipes directly into the backbone for us', which would have been a competitive advantage.
- wand3r 9y agoWell they were because they were small. They fought for it until they got big, then closed the door behind them.
- autokad 9y agowhat im saying is, the event that people say netflix stood up for net neutrality is when they were telling ISP's to allow netflix to build pipes directly into their backbones, and didnt want to pay for it. and people were like hell yeah netflix, fight the good fight! they weren't standing up to 'the man', they were asking for special privileges because they were big - they were already big at this point, not small
