It’s no secret that Reed Hastings doesn’t think too highly of Comcast.
The Netflix chief executive, who has previously criticized the cable
giant’s claims that it costs the company a lot to deliver Internet
video, fired another salvo Sunday, slamming the company’s policy on Net
neutrality and data caps.
As he explained on his Facebook page, his complaint is that when Comcast subscribers watch Netflix, Hulu, or HBO Go on their
Xbox
consoles, it counts against their monthly data limits. However,
subscribers who use Xfinity don’t have their limits dinged, suggesting
that Comcast is giving its service preferential treatment to keep
subscribers on the service rather than straying over to Netflix.
