LOS GATOS, Calif., March 21 (UPI) -- Reed Hastings, chief executive officer of Netflix, one of the biggest consumers of bandwidth in the country, has called for strong net neutrality protection.
In a statement on a company blog, Hastings said Thursday that net neutrality is a protection for the public, not for Netflix and other commercial enterprises using the Internet. He cited a statement by a Verizon executive that Netflix is "dumping" as much material as it wants through Internet service providers.
