Thousands of Netflix users in the U.S. reported service disruptions, with over 12,000 incidents noted at one point. The surge in streaming issues coincided with the live broadcast of a high-profile boxing match between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul, an event expected to attract significant viewership.
Despite the initial wave of complaints, the number of affected users decreased to 5,114 as the situation improved. Netflix (NFLX, Financial) has not provided an immediate comment regarding the disruptions.
