Three days after the live death of Jean Pormanove , a victim of months of abuse broadcast on Kick, Gabriel Attal makes his suggestions. The former Prime Minister proposed, on Thursday, August 21, to set up screenings against "screen addiction" among young people, at the entrance to middle school and then high school. In a publication on X, he also put on the table "the transition to black and white" of videos beyond 30 minutes of viewing. "Less color, less dopamine, less addiction," justifies the EPR deputy of Hauts-de-Seine, who also wants "a tax on platforms to finance research on screen addiction and for mental health."
"With the use of short formats, our young people are becoming social media addicts. Addicted to the endless stream of images, the shocking rhetoric, and the increasingly violent acts."

The leader of the Renaissance party also advocates a " strict ban on social networks for children under 15 " - something Emmanuel Macron has also proposed on several occasions - and a "digital curfew for 15-18 year-olds" , accompanied by a "strong limitation on the time of access to networks" .
The death on Monday in Contes (Alpes-Maritimes) of forty-year-old Raphaël Graven, known online as Jean Pormanove, has raised many questions about the responsibilities that led to this tragedy. In addition to the investigation to determine the causes of death opened by the Nice prosecutor's office, and the criticism aimed at Arcom , the digital police force, the Australian platform Kick is also widely singled out.
On Thursday, forensic pathologists ruled out "traumatic causes" and "third-party intervention" in the streamer's death. Nice prosecutor Damien Martinelli ordered further "additional toxicological and pathological analyses."
