There was, however, congestion at the interconnection link to the edge of our network (the border router) used by the transit providers chosen by Netflix to deliver video traffic to Verizon’s network.
In what world does Netflix choose a transit provider into someone else's network? I'm pretty sure that Verizon chooses who it peers with and how it announces BGP prefixes. This means that Verizon is largely in control of traffic engineering at its borders. If one of those transit providers is congested, this is something Verizon, as a responsible network operator, is surely aware of and has the capability to resolve. This is difficult, if even possible, for a source network operator to work around.
