   Nothing prevents an ISP from throttling Netflix,   
   even if you buy Gigabit service. That's the beauty of   
   net neutrality or the lack thereof.   
      
   This is one reason that people cannot see Netflix in HD,   
   because the connection to Netflix is throttled, no matter   
   what grade of service you thought that you'd bought.   
      
   The ISP could have been cut out of the picture, by the   
   usage of a VPN to "hide" the traffic, except Netflix has   
   anti-VPN provisions to prevent people from other   
   countries from subscribing to US Netflix service   
   (by using a US billing address).   
      
   Netflix has a lot of nuances. One size bandaid doesn't fit all.
