A new track to succeed in keeping minors away from pornographic content. The use of a credit card to watch porn online could act as a “filter” to guarantee the prohibition of access to pornography for minors, according to the Secretary of State for Children Charlotte Caubel.
She notably mentioned the use of a credit card as a “filter”, “for zero or one euro” in order to allow access to pornographic sites.
36% of boys exposed to porn before age 13
This “would already be a filter. We are opposed that it would not be a perfect filter, but already if we can protect 30 or 40% (of minors), let’s be pragmatic. My child, when he uses his credit card, I have an alert, I’ll see if it’s on Youporn or on McDo “, advanced the Secretary of State before the Delegation for the Rights of the Child, at the Assembly national.
“We are the fourth largest producer of child pornography images. (…) Until when do we have to wait to open our eyes? “, she asked herself, not hiding her “anger” and promising to “make things happen seriously. »
According to a Senate report on porn released last month, 36% of boys were exposed to pornographic images before the age of 13. A third of boys under 15 visit a porn site every month.
