Last May, Bruno Le Maire, Minister of the Economy, Finance and Industrial and Digital Sovereignty, said he wanted “give names” influencers not respecting the law. Since then, six network stars have been singled out by the General Directorate for Competition, Consumer Affairs and Fraud Control (DGCCRF) for “misleading commercial practices”. Among them: Capucine Anav, Illan Castronovo, Anthony Mathéo, but also Simon Castaldi.
For several weeks, the latter will then have to share a ministry publication on which Internet users can identify the errors they have made. The son of Benjamin Castaldi, for example, does not indicate “neither the commercial intent of his publications, yet directly related to the promotion of goods or services, nor the brands for which he makes these communications.”

Simon Castaldi vs Booba
Visibly relieved to finally see the government act, Booba, at war against those he has nicknamed “influencers” for more than a year, has therefore not failed to pin several articles indicating the decision of the DGCCRF on his account. Twitter. “The list is long…”, he writes while sharing a recent news from BFM TV. A post that sparked strong reactions. “Finally”, “We must continue because there are improbable things”, “It is not about to stop”, “Thank you Booba for denouncing these influencers without faith or law”, “The rest comes tick tock tick tock”, “You are the boss, just for this fight, you deserve respect, I had so much hatred against these people, today, I I’m glad”, could we read in particular in the comments.
If many internet users congratulated the duke, Simon Castaldi, for his part, did not take the rapper’s reaction very well. “Koop, you and I know I’m not the target. I am the tip of the iceberg. To be continued…”he launched before specifying that if he made the decision to post this message from the DGCCRF it is above all because he did not have “nothing to hide”. He considers, moreover, that he does not have “scammed person” with its partnerships. For him, “if others do not publish, it is because given the sorrel they made by ripping off 15,000 euros, it is not very serious.”
