This bill prohibits video streaming services (like Netflix or Disney+) from showing advertisements about abortion, alcohol, drugs, gambling, gender transition, or nicotine during children's programming rated for viewers under 14. The law applies only to streaming services and excludes traditional broadcast television, cable, and satellite providers. Violations would result in penalties under South Dakota law.
The amendment NARROWS the bill by raising the age threshold for "children's programming" from under sixteen to under fourteen and replacing the broad categorical bans on "gender identity" and "sexual behavior" with the narrower prohibition on "gender transition" only, while also adding specific rating system requirements (TV-Y, TV-Y7, TV-G, TV-PG, G, PG) and clarifying that satellite television operators are excluded from the definition of video streaming services.
