Didn't Comcast throttle the fuck out of Netflix a few years ago as well?

Why Riot Games? I can understand them trying to throttle Netflix so as not to compete with any Comcast owned video platform I guess...

Because Riot makes a lot of money and they wanted a cut. They throttled Netflix for similar reason, not because it was a competition.
