Please also get rid of the stupid radio ads that have honking sounds. I don't need that shit during rush hour where everybody is already stressed as it is. Car honking noises doesn't fucking help.

Honking, car crash, sirens, yelling all need to go

Living in Los Angeles sirens in movies/TV generally confuse the fuck out of me

Totally agree. I've been on high alert due to those

Why only streaming services? Why not target the volume of any ads within content that contains audio? While we are at it why not say that the add can't be significantly more bright?

The FCC already regulates the volume of ads on TV and other over the air providers. However, streaming is somewhat of a loophole, and this helps close it
