This text notably creates a penalty of banning from social networks against cyberstalkers or people judged guilty of disseminating violent images, child pornography, pimping, negationism or provocation to hatred.
As “it has already been unanimously adopted in the Senate”Jean-Noël Barrot hopes that this bill “will be adopted in the coming weeks”. He even says he has “good hope that this text will be promulgated at the beginning of next year”.
Jean-Noël Barrot also wants Parliament to extend this sentence “so that it can be pronounced from the start of the investigation, without waiting for a conviction”. The Minister Delegate in charge of Digital pleads for a measure “preventive”. This would, according to him, allow “to avoid recurrence and put an end much sooner to these phenomena of raids of violence and hatred triggered by a minority of Internet users on social networks”.
