A French parliamentary committee has urged a complete ban on social media for children under 15 and a nighttime "digital curfew" for those aged 15 to 18. This recommendation follows months of testimony and concerns about the psychological effects of platforms like TikTok on minors.

• The report suggests banning social media access for children under 15 and implementing a "digital curfew" from 10 pm to 8 am for 15- to 18-year-olds.
• The primary organization involved is a French parliamentary committee, initially formed to examine TikTok's impact on minors after a 2024 lawsuit.
• TikTok acknowledged catching 98 percent of infringing content in France last year, but lawmakers deemed these efforts insufficient due to easy circumvention of rules and the proliferation of harmful content.
