When I load that page, it briefly says "Netflix is up" before the message is replaced with "We are currently experiencing issues streaming on all devices.". That seems to suggest that other breakage can cause the status page to show incorrect results.
- jmkni 9y agoYeah that seems to be baked into the HTML, then they run something client side (when the JS finally loads, took forever) to actually go and check.
- contravariant 9y agoSeems a bit of an odd design choice (especially since it would keep saying everything is fine when it fails).
- rconti 9y agoWell, from a corporate standpoint, it's better than saying things are down when they're not. Though it seems like it should just be a missing datapoint until it can ascertain true status.
- sli 9y agoSomething similar, but worse, happened during that fairly-recent AWS outage, didn't it? Everything showing green because it defaults to green. Netflix's message doesn't update correctly unless I enable some extra scripts in uMatrix. That's no good for a status page.
