In recent years, anti-Semitic or racist content have developed on social networks. On Twitter, the hashtag #unbonjuif had attracted a record number of anti-Semitic tweets. This was denounced by many associations that sued Twitter in judicial court and force the network to communicate to the judge data to identify the perpetrators of racist and anti-Semitic tweets. After months of legal battle, the social network company had finally to deliver "data which may enable identification of some authors' of anti-Semitic tweets. At the annual dinner of CRIF in 2013, Francois Hollande, spoke out against the dissemination of messages with racist and anti-Semitic on social networks. In June 2012, Christiane Taubira asked prosecutors to implement a "dynamic and offensive" criminal policy. Were these statements heard and did they lead to concrete initiatives?
