“Hi it’s Leo, what does it say?”
This Friday, October 27, is #NoTwitterDay. Three fake news specialists are calling for a user strike, one year after the takeover of the social network by American billionaire Elon Musk. They denounce the conspiratorial excesses of Twitter, renamed since X, and the highlighting of toxic content, violent images and hatred online.
The government must continue its announcements this Friday in response to the riots that occurred four months ago after the death of Nahel in Nanterre. On Thursday, the Prime Minister notably announced expanded powers for the municipal police, a heavier fine in the event of non-compliance with a curfew and even measures to “empower the parents of the rioters.”
