More Observations...
The acronym VOIP refers to a system of communicating over the internet. VOIP converts voice into a digital signal, allowing users to make calls directly from a computer, VOIP phone, or other data device, rather than through the PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network). In gaming, some games have VOIP built-in, but players often use alternatives, such as Discord, TeamSpeak and Ventrilo.Image for VOIP
