Ban engagement-driven algorithms that push provocative content on social media

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 10 February 2026

Introduce laws to severely limit engagement-driven algorithms that push emotionally provocative news and political content. Require simple, non-algorithmic or chronological feeds by default, and give users a clear option to turn off behaviour-influencing content ranking. In the past, people chose when to watch the news. Today, social media places a permanent stream of news, arguments and outrage in our pockets, driven by algorithms designed to trigger emotional responses. These systems use the same psychological techniques once used in advertising to sell products, but now apply them continuously to beliefs, emotions and identity. We believe that this constant exposure is harming mental health, increasing division, and affecting how people think and vote, without meaningful consent or an off switch.

Question 12696 — chasse et pêche

France · National Assembly · 10 February 2026

M. Antoine Villedieu interroge M. le ministre de l'intérieur sur les récentes fuites massives de données personnelles touchant des fichiers liés à la pratique de la chasse en France. En effet, le 20 janvier 2026, les systèmes informatiques de la Fédération nationale des chasseurs (FNC) ont été la cible d'une intrusion informatique grave, aboutissant à l'accès non autorisé à des informations personnelles et à des données liées à la validation des permis de chasser d'environ 1,4 million de citoyens pratiquant légalement cette activité. Ces données ont ensuite été mises en vente sur le dark web , suscitant une vive inquiétude quant à leur exploitation potentielle par des individus malveillants, y compris pour des actes criminels ciblés dans les zones rurales. Cette attaque s'est doublée, quelques jours plus tard, d'une cyberattaque visant l'application nationale de gestion du permis de chasser, gérée par l'Office français de la biodiversité (OFB), dont la publicité faite aux données compromises (identités complètes, coordonnées et numéros de permis) a encore renforcé l'émoi des chasseurs. Ces incidents interviennent dans un contexte où la centralisation et la numérisation des fichiers administratifs exposent des citoyens respectueux de la loi à des risques concrets, alors même que de précédentes attaques, notamment contre la Fédération française de tir (FFTir) avaient conduit à des cambriolages ciblés et à des vols d'armes, attestant du lien direct entre fuite de données et mise en danger des détenteurs d'armes légaux. De telles atteintes, qui concernent des populations légalement inscrites dans des dispositifs administratifs, heurtent profondément l'opinion nationale et notamment les citoyens chasseurs qui, au-delà de la protection de leurs données, redoutent les conséquences sécuritaires d'une telle exposition d'informations sensibles dans un contexte où la ruralité est trop souvent négligée par les politiques publiques. Il lui demande quelles mesures le Gouvernement entend prendre pour garantir la protection effective et renforcée des données personnelles des chasseurs, notamment au sein du guichet unique national, renforcer les exigences minimales de cybersécurité imposées à l'ensemble des organismes (publics ou privés) en charge de fichiers sensibles, assurer une information transparente des personnes concernées en cas d'incident de sécurité, et revoir en profondeur la stratégie de numérisation des procédures administratives afin d'éviter que la dématérialisation n'accroisse l'exposition des citoyens au risque criminel.
