As I said to Netflix's tech support - if they advocate for people to turn off IPv6 on their end, maybe Netflix should stop supporting it on their end. It's in the air whether it's just an HE tunnel issue or an IPv6 issue at the moment, and if their tech support is telling people to turn off IPv6, maybe they should just instead remove their AAAA records.
