Controversy of 2017

In October 2017, Clara Gonzales and Elliot Lepers, two feminist activists were victims of harassment calls by participants of the forum "Blabla 18-25 ans" of the website Jeuxvideo.com, following the creation of an emergency number allowing women to give a phone number other than theirs when a stalker asks them. Their numbers were saturated with false requests from mobile apps that sent mass SMS messages. They have since been the subject of cyberbullying on Twitter, fake food orders at home, and harassing people making themselves at home . Reacting on the public service to the controversy caused by the flooding of the number, the director of Jeuxvideo.com, Cédric Page, condemned "these actions" while defending the forum, saying that "it is simply the expression of this youth". A forum that is regularly blamed for propagating hate speech and otherwise known from the newspaper Libération to be a haunt for anti-feminist activists.[3]

On November 1, 2017, Nadia Daam talked of the situation in a chronicle on Europe 1, and attacked the forum 18-25, calling it among other things "non-recyclable trash bin". She suffered a campaign of harassment in return for a boost of solidarity from the media corporation. A tribune, signed by a hundred journalists, abounds in its meaning designating members of the forum as "cowardly, shabby and despicable beings", calling "the police and the community of the web" to put these "out of state" to harm ". Secretary of State for Equality between Women and Men Marlene Schiappa also called Twitter and Webedia, the company owning jeuxvideo.com. Europe 1 radio reported that it had filed a complaint about the threat of violence against people. The spokesman of Webedia, owner of the site, said that "the topics evoking this Nadia Daam were systematically erased preventively".[4]
