Existing law prohibits a person, among others, from making or disseminating in any advertising device, or in any manner or means whatever, including over the Internet, any statement concerning real or personal property or services that is untrue or misleading, as specified. "...a person, among others.."
So it applies to plants and animals as well? How about space aliens?
“applies to”
“among others” may mean it only applies to children and midgets within a group of normal sized adults.
I.e., The shorties are “among” the others in the group.
