The French Senate passed the "rioters pay" bill, which makes rioters financially responsible for damages during public demonstrations and can be ordered to pay up to 10,000 euros ($11,000) for property damage, even if they did not personally commit the vandalism. The liability covers anyone who "knowingly participated" in a group formed to corrupt, or who remained after two police warnings to disperse. Social media platforms must remove content that incites violence, vandalism or insurrection within 24 hours of the authority's request, or face blocking and removal. To collect unpaid compensation, the state can seize parts of social benefits, including family allowances, housing assistance, allowances and Frances minimum income benefit.
