Summary: The traditional delimitation of the digital environment in reference sectors such as telecommunications (electronic communications), audiovisual and information society services (ICT services) has been affected by the appearance of innumerable services provided through the Internet that They offer features typical of these services but that do not fit into their definition, so they escape the application of their legal regime. These over the top (OTT) services are altering the balance of the different sectors, by competing with other operators without submitting to the same legal regime, avoiding obligations necessary to achieve objectives of general interest. Faced with this challenge, the European Union has chosen to expand the scope of application to include them in the corresponding legal regime, but subjecting them to specific and different obligations from those of traditional operators to facilitate their development while pursuing objectives of public interest.
