Exactly.

So what precisely are the metrics they use to block?  I'm not using a proxy
at all, its my own ASN...

Ok - that's me, never ever will I look at NexFlix again.

I have my own /48, registered in my own name, my own company, my own
peering links, and my own transit links.  Signup, no problems.  As soon

I started watching a stream...

Wham, blocked.  Proxy Detected.

It's clear NetFlix has something against IPv6, not tunnels.

I disagree.

I’ve got IPv6 at work, nothing elaborate, just a /48 given to us by our
ISP.

I ran a test on an IPv6-only connection, no IPv4 addressing whatsoever,
and a few random Netflix shows played perfectly fine.
