Netflix Class Action Lawsuit: Streamer Sued Over Buffering, Glitches During Mike Tyson …
Netflix is currently facing a class action lawsuit due to widespread streaming issues during the recent Mike Tyson-Jake Paul boxing match. The lawsuit, filed in Florida on November 21, highlights the fact that many viewers experienced frustrating buffering problems when trying to watch the fight on Netflix.
The 13-page amended complaint accuses Netflix of being unprepared to handle the high demand for the bout, which resulted in a poor streaming experience for the majority of viewers. Despite the anticipation surrounding the fight, subscribers were left disappointed by the constant buffering and glitches that plagued the event.
By 9:46 p.m. on the night of the fight, nearly 100,000 complaints had already been reported online about Netflix’s handling of the event. The lawsuit argues that Netflix should have anticipated these issues and taken steps to prevent them, especially considering similar problems have occurred in the past.
The class action lawsuit aims to cover all current Netflix customers in the United States who were affected by the streaming issues during the Tyson-Paul fight. An estimated 50 million individuals are said to be included in the proposed class.
