Réseaux sociaux : interdire pour protéger les mineurs ?

On June 23, the Senate organized a symposium on social media and its implications for minors under 15. Through two roundtables, the President of the Senate sought to delve deeper into the dangers of social media for young people and to explore new approaches to address them. During the first debate, addiction specialist Amine Benyamia and epidemiologist Maria Melchior discussed the harmful effects of social media on the physical and mental health of minors. The second roundtable allowed the speakers to revisit Senator Catherine Morin-Desailly's proposed law aimed at banning social media for those under 13. Ambassador for AI and Digital Affairs Clara Chappaz and legal expert Julie Groffe-Charrier addressed the challenges of regulating social media while respecting the individual freedoms of young people.
