Question 14097 — fundamental rights

Summary

Mr. Sylvain Maillard draws the attention of the Minister of the Interior to the fact that, on the internet, the Russian platform VK (VKontakte) offers an interface which is used by extremists even though it is not moderated. On VK, neo-Nazis publish anti-Semitic, racist and homophobic content and images of rare violence, and calls for murder. Furthermore, the Russian network does not have legal representation in France, likely to be approached by the authorities, no dialogue is possible. However, on VK there are the worst offenses contravening criminal provisions in the fight against racism and anti-Semitism. The texts are published by French citizens and supplied from the national territory. Considering that adequate measures must be taken, especially after the tragic attack which was perpetrated against a synagogue in Pittsburgh, he would like to know how the Government and particularly his ministry intend to combat the worrying proliferation of comments made by certain Internet users, contrary to the values ​​of the French Republic.
