Netflix CEO Reed Hastings weighs in on talk of Verizon throttling Netflix streams

Last week saw a blog post (and no, that’s not me) intimating that Verizon was throttling Netflix streams.

Now there’s an update from a Netflix analyst, quoting Netflix CEO Reed Hastings.

That update comes to us via a note from J.P. Morgan analyst Doug Anmuth, who says he’s been talking to Netflix CEO Reed Hastings and CFO David Wells, and they told him they don’t think cable and telco companies are hampering the company’s video streams.

Anmuth doesn’t have much to report on the topic, so here are his comments in their entirety: ”Netflix does not seem overly concerned regarding Net Neutrality, and continues to believe that violations would be escalated quickly. Netflix also indicated that it has no evidence or belief that its service is being throttled.”
