The journalist-turned MP François Ruffin introduced his bill in the Assemblée nationale calling for the "right to peace in peace" - free from digital advertsing screens. The politician, of the hard left La France Insoumise party, is calling for restrictions on digital advertising screens. He said: "I thought: even here, advertisers are invading our available brain time! The bill, which is also backed by several other French MPs but no-one from the ruling La Republique en Marche party, calls for restrictions on the 2,500 digital advertising screens that have appeared in France since 2015, including 1,200 in urinals. His bill has now been referred to the Social Affairs Committee.
