>> Television commercials that increase in volume over ordinary programming

These are banned at the federal level in the US. If you hear them, the FCC wants to know about it: https://www.fcc.gov/consumers/guides/loud-commercials-tv.

Anyone happen to know what format(s) that applies to? The page you linked says

> If you watched the commercial on pay TV (cable or satellite) or if you watched it on a broadcast station

so I'm assuming not just OTA TV, but ex. what about YouTube ads?
