Overview

• An all-party parliamentary report recommends blocking social platforms for under-15s and imposing a 10 p.m.–8 a.m. digital curfew for users aged 15–18.
• The report also calls for mandatory age verification at sign-up, a nationwide information campaign, and a new “digital negligence” offense for parents.
• Lawmakers propose extending a ban to all under-18s within three years if platforms fail to meet obligations under the EU Digital Services Act.
• Committee chair Arthur Delaporte referred TikTok to the Paris prosecutor alleging endangerment of young users and possible perjury by executives, with a charging decision still pending.
• TikTok rejects the findings as misleading and cites extensive safety tools and rapid content removal, while the inquiry followed a 2024 lawsuit by seven families.
