French lawmakers on Wednesday will mull limits on virtual private networks as part of an anti-cybercrime measure that would also require web browsers to notify users when they access websites listed on a government blacklist.
The bill, widely known as SREN, is part of a Macron administration push to decrease online crime. It passed the French Senate in June. The bill lays down nearly 20 proposals intended to ensure the digital safety of French internet users from cyberthreats and harassment, internet scams, hate speech, and access to pornographic sites to minors.
