They can take away our pants, but never......our mbps.
Too late, our mbps have already been taken away.

No need for pants then. Letting it all hang out.Too late, our mbps have already been taken away.
I fear we may be saying that about a great many things.Will be interesting to see how long it takes to return to normal. If it ever does.
Wise wordsI fear we may be saying that about a great many things.
Would it not be easier to ask consumers to ration their streaming?
Only if you signed up for one of those new fangled smart meters...Well, after the government brings in food rationing, it will ration electricity, which will definitely limit streaming consumption.

My laptop doesn't take much to charge, can stream from the internet using my phone, work phone, or tablet (each on different networks, oodles of data). Even in the most severe rationing situations, I reckon I'm ok...
Watched a Disney+ movie yesterday and the whole way through I couldn't help but think "would this look better if a stupid EU politican hadn't needlessly cut streaming quality?". Will be interesting to see how it looks when the ISPs finally manage to cut through and say there is nothing to be concerned about, and full streaming rates are restored.
Are you watching in a dark room?I did a quick compare of Avengers: Endgame between the UHD blu-ray and the Disney+ stream. I didn't notice any difference. The D+ stream was DV and the BR was HDR. I watched the scene at the beginning with Hawkeye and his family. I didn't compare the sound as both as going through the TV sound.

How would one do this if watching D+ through an LG tv?Can confirm netflix 4k works full 15mbps bitrate with US VPN. One way to get around it I guess.
I’ll be putting an irrational amount of baggage upon that date, and whether we get it back to normal! A litmus test if you will.30 days from reported by BBC indicates Netflix throttling should end April 17th.
