Stay Inside and Watch Netflix

At this point in our current quarantine culture, the average person has been consuming more streaming services than they might have only a few months ago. 

Due to this massive influx of streaming, Netflix has stated that it will reduce video quality in Europe and the UK and perhaps even in the US as well. YouTube has also decided to cut its streaming quality globally.

What’s more is that in the US some 27 cities have seen broadband speed drop by 20% and a couple of cities (Austin, Winston Salem, and Oxnard) have experienced 40% slower speeds

The Effects of Reduced Broadband Speeds

In addition to the uptick in streaming, there are of course entire families working from home along with their college-age children taking online classes. As a result, broadband speeds are taking a hit, having ripple effects for all businesses with remote workers. 

To put into perspective how detrimental a slow network can be for a business, consider that each year, companies lose $26.5 billion in revenue due to IT downtime

The simple reality is that a remote workforce with slow internet speed is a slow workforce. A remote workforce with no internet connection is the same as having no workforce at all.
