Media reports reveal that the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) announced on Tuesday that it will soon start regulating the activities of Over-The-Top (OTT) players in the Nigerian telecommunications market.
OTT players are platforms like Facebook, Skype, WhatsApp, Viber, Blackberry Messenger (BBM) and WeChat, and so on, that deliver audio, video, and other media over the Internet without a multiple-system operator in control of distribution of the content.
The NCC, in a 23-page document titled: ‘An Overview of Provision of Over-The-Top (OTT) Services’ stated that the growing influence of these social media platforms posed an obvious threat to the operation of traditional telephone networks.
