I was getting blasted earlier for suggesting streaming services and gaming DLCs could likely be slowed by government intervention. EU is currently working with Netflix to do just that. It's currently a strong suggestion and even a plead but I maintain that we're going to see this pushed harder in the coming weeks. In a statement on Thursday, Breton said that given the unprecedented situation, streaming platforms, telecom operators and users "all have a joint responsibility to take steps to ensure the smooth functioning of the internet during the battle against the virus propagation." https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/19/tech/netflix-internet-overload-eu/index.html
Well that's pretty desperate. If you have an OCA connected to your network to serve your customers, I'm not sure taking streams down from HD to SD actually moves the needle. Mark.
