Petition is addressed to: European Committee on petitions

Advertisements always appear to be much louder than whatever else you hear, be it in the cinema, the radio, streaming platforms,... as long as it has advertisements, they will be loud.
Not only does this affect our health, but also our moods.
I would like to have a ruling so that ads are not allowed to be louder than regular content we consume!

Reason

Apart from it being a nuisance to just about everyone i know, loud noises do affect our health, physically and mentally.
To minimize stress this would be an adequate first step.
