Over the Top Content (OTT)
Over the Top or OTT as it is referred to is a new form of ‘digital stealth’ technology that can be used by persons or organizations to disguise identity. OTT covers a wide range of content delivered through applications and third-party services, whether they be video or audio. OTT content can be accessed directly through an Internet-connected such as a PC, laptop, tablet, smartphone, and other web enabled devices. Over-the-top content is delivered without the aid of a service provider such as Telstra, Vodaphone, AT&T, Foxtel Comcast etc.
