Greg Kumparak, TechCrunch:

Google says it is temporarily lowering the video quality of Nest Cams in an effort to limit how much bandwidth each camera uses and, in turn, “conserve internet resources.” The adjustment is rolling out over the next few days, and Google says anyone who has their quality settings adjusted will get a notification in the Nest app.

More streaming, more Zoom/Skype/FaceTime, no question we’re using more internet in my house in corona time.

Amazon, Netflix, and YouTube have each taken steps to limit the strain they might be adding to the network, while Sony has been capping PlayStation game download speeds.

Interesting times. Imagine if we had to go through this without the internet.
