Xavier Becerra isn't playing around! The frontrunner for California governor is laying down the law for streaming services. He’s sick of them hoarding data and making their own rules. Becerra wants to force these tech titans to open up their books, demanding full transparency on their viewership numbers and other crucial data that impacts the industry.
But that's not all. Becerra is also pushing for a "California Entertainment Summit" to shake things up and get the industry back on track. And when it comes to those sweet entertainment tax credits, he’s got a plan to make them even better. He wants to expand them, but with a catch: they’ll be tied to areas where California is losing jobs, aiming to bring work back home.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Becerra’s strategy is all about boosting California’s entertainment industry and ensuring a fair playing field. He’s clearly ready to rumble with the streaming giants and fight for local jobs. This could mean big changes for Tinseltown!
