French Government Calls Emergency Meetings With Platforms Over Protests

The French government has called emergency meetings with social media platforms and online retailers to address the spread of protest footage and AI-altered images, as well as the sale of looted goods online. The meetings were focused on curbing the spread of protest-related content, particularly on TikTok, and preventing the sale of stolen items on resale sites like Vinted and eBay. It is reported that Vinted and eBay have signed an agreement to remove looted goods from their platforms.
