1. A method of controlling a transmission of at least one item of content from a piece of provider equipment to an ingest node of a content delivery network, wherein the method comprises the following, which are implemented by a piece of control equipment:
measuring a value of at least one actual telemetry datum relating to the transmission of at least one constituent data packet of the item of content;
comparing the value of at least one actual telemetry datum with a value of at least one expected telemetry datum relating to the transmission of the at least one constituent data packet of the item of content; and
when the value of the actual telemetry datum and the value of the expected telemetry datum match, triggering, for an entity managing the content delivery network, compensation for the transmission of the item of content.
