That's not inconsistent with Verizon's statement. Verizon is saying, "we won't accept more traffic directly from Netflix (via their transit providers) until we get more money!". By using a VPN, you're avoiding that direct connection, and traversing a less-loaded link.
- swasheck 12y agoExactly. They took Netflix's bait with the "congestion" message. They're demonstrating that their network isn't congested and now we're closer to seeing that they really are attempting to charge multiple customers for the same traffic.
