Netflix users report streaming issues ahead of Mike Tyson, Jake Paul fight
Tens of thousands of Netflix users reported issues accessing the streaming service prior to the long-awaited showdown between boxing legend Mike Tyson and YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul.
Customers began reporting issues at around 7 p.m. CT, according to the website Down Detector, which tracks online service outages. Reports of problems skyrocketed at around 9:46 p.m., when roughly 97,000 reports had been received.
At 9:26 p.m., 69,000 users reported issues accessing the streaming service. NBC Chicago contacted Netflix for a response to the troubles and was told, in part, "Nothing to comment on at this time..."
Yes yes Yes this was a big deal, I wonder how this could have ever happened. I thought Netflix live streaming servers was strong enough to handle that number.
No idea. I dont have Netflix but it is the growing pains for some of these platforms.
On the topic of Netflix, I think soon we should hope to see Web 3 Netflix right
We need to work on creating it. These things do not build themselves.
very true maybe after a while being part of this community I'll try and see if this could be my mission for the platform. But I would need experience first and as you say it doesn't build itself I'll have to do it
Yep. We just need to keep focus on doing all we can in a decentralized manner. The fact that you are adding information and data here is a good first step. It is what allows us to democratize data.
We are feeding the database to train LeoAI. Once that is released, then we can start to use it, a non Big Tech chatbot.
ooo I like the sound of a non Big tech chatbot. Finally something not controlled or regulated by government and individual billionaires
Tyson retired with a 50-6 record and 44 knockouts after losing to Kevin McBride 19 years ago. Paul debuted as a pro boxer about four years ago and is 10-1 with seven knockouts fighting mostly mixed martial artists and journeymen boxers.
The fight was originally scheduled for July 20 but had to be postponed when Tyson was treated for a stomach ulcer after falling ill on a flight. In a documentary chronicling the preparations for the fight, Tyson said he lost 26 pounds in the process of recovering.
During a press conference Wednesday, before the fight, Tyson had terse answers for all the questions asked about the fight asked Paul.
I just can't believe they have commented on that yet or perhaps they themselves have to find out what exactly caused such a problem.
