“Broadcasting standards” make little sense in the age of streaming, internet platforms, and user generated content. Network TV is basically dead. Regulating individual streamers and content creators is a fool’s errand and only creates resentment against the government.

If you want to retain influence over national media, the effective modern path seems to be for governments to help fund that content, as in Canada or Japan.

I think "broadcasting standards" can be extended to streaming and content creators although harder to police due to sheer numbers. In many countries, the internet has led to a democratisation of video/TV content despite outlets such as YouTube trying to manipulate it and shut out most smaller uploaders.
