Re: The great Netflix vpn debacle!

[Bryan Holloway <bryan () shout net>]

Is there some new DB that major CDNs are using?

We've been getting several reports of prefixes of ours being blocked, 
claiming to be VPNs, even though we've been using those subnets without 
incident for years.

HBO, Netflix, and Hulu appear to be common denominators. I have to 
wonder if they're all siphoning misinformation off of some new DB 
somewhere ...
