Netflix wants you to know whose fault it is that your movie isnt loading — and, big surprise, its pinning the issue on internet service providers. As spotted by Vox Media designer Yuri Victor last night, Netflix is testing a notification that would inform subscribers when their internet providers network has become congested and started to hurt their video. The Verizon network is crowded right now, Netflixs message to Victor, a FiOS subscriber, read, after playback was paused to adjust the stream. As Recode points out, Netflixs communication chief, Jonathan Friedland, replied on Twitter to say that it was testing the message as a way to keep members informed.
