Netflix to cut streaming quality in Europe for 30 days

We should expect this to get worse. As things shut down there's going to be less and less to do other than sit do other than sit down and be a couch potato. I've noticed smaller games are getting overloaded and it looks like larger services are starting to feel the load. The upside is it might mean governments actually throw some money into upgrading that infrastructure. Bored people are much more prone to stupidity and that's something we really don't want right now.

That said you should be gabbing everything you want to see right now. Once these problems come into full effect heavy users are going to get throttled and I've seen several people complain about a mysterious dropoff in internet speed. I wonder why.
