You need to process the video before that, as not every phone/browser has the right codecs to stream from every other phone. Then you need to ship that to POPs

You need to process the video before that, as not every phone/browser has the right codecs to stream from every other phone. Then you need to ship that to POPs and serve it. That’s some industrial strength bandwidth and computer power, not to mention the feature tagging the AI is doing to show the videos to the right audience.
