Netflix faces lawsuit over streaming issues during Tyson vs Paul fight
Netflix is facing a lawsuit over poor streaming quality during the highly publicized boxing match between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul. The lawsuit, filed by Ronald "Blue" Denton, claims that many viewers experienced buffering and glitches, violating their contract. Denton seeks unspecified damages, citing widespread complaints from fans who struggled to watch the fight. Netflix's Chief Technology Officer acknowledged the issues in an internal email but noted the event attracted record viewership. Despite the streaming problems, Netflix considers the event a success. Celebrities, including Howard Stern, have criticized the platform, warning that future broadcasts, like NFL games, must perform better to avoid further backlash.
