AI Summary
This bill expands existing regulations on video streaming services to include other types of online content providers, specifically prohibiting social media video services, music streaming services, and podcast streaming services from transmitting commercial advertisements at a volume louder than the content they accompany, a rule that already applies to video streaming services and is consistent with the federal Commercial Advertisement Loudness Mitigation (CALM) Act. The bill also makes technical, non-substantive changes to a law that makes it a misdemeanor to misuse funds solicited for veterans' benefit, and it updates the definition of "video streaming service" to clarify what entities are covered by these regulations.
