Federal Communications Commission member Ajit Pai wrote a letter to Netflix CEO Reed Hastings saying he was, "surprised to learn of allegations that Netflix has been working to effectively secure 'fast lanes' for its own content on ISPs' networks at the expense of its competitors", as these allegations "raise an apparent conflict with Netflix's advocacy for strong net neutrality regulations." A response from Netflix is requested by December 16, 2014.
