iirc Netflix set up a dashboard to show just this - how shit is your ISP when it comes to (specifically) passing Netflix data. They can use that to point out violations of net neutrality as well: https://ispspeedindex.netflix.net/. It seems pretty healthy nowadays, although they only seem to measure up to 3.6 Mbit/s

Either I'm not reading this correctly, or this cannot be accurate. As an example, in the UK, Virgin Media has a coverage of 96.98% for speeds greater than 24Mbps. A far cry from Netflix's 3.6 Mbps figure.
I also use fast.com to test and have noticed that while using nordvpn I get no service at all (errors out.) I wonder if this is nord or Netflix since I can watch Netflix under the VPN it’s just painfully slow.
Mine shows a reading of 3.6 Mbit/s. Not great, not terrible.
I wish I had 15,000Mbit/s internet.
