  • Carte blanche on 17 January: the place of volunteering in our society

    February 10, 2025

  • Black or white! Petition 3176, which was submitted to Parliament on 4 November, received 4,775 signatures: it aims to ban smartphones on school grounds in general. Petitions are in vogue. A carte blanche from Gaston Ternes. Petitions are positive in themselves: they give committed citizens the opportunity to express their opinions publicly in Parliament, the institution of elected representatives who make decisions for us in our parliamentary democracy. One question is on my mind: Is it always just black or white, without any nuances? The current discussion about the general ban on mobile phones in schools makes me think: is it enough to answer "good" or "bad" with regard to "education"? It makes no sense to simply ban mobile phones. Similarly, it makes no sense to allow mobile phones everywhere all the time! The issue simply doesn't fit into a binary system, either a zero or a one. "Media must be taught and not demonised," psychiatrist Serge Tisseron recently put it in a nutshell. Media need rules that need to be practised both in the family and at school. Recently, when it comes to questions about schools, it's almost always just about "good or bad": International or Luxembourgish schools, for example, without taking the opportunity to systematically exchange best practices! Nowadays, everyone can communicate directly, often with just a "thumbs up" or a "thumbs down" or even an emoji to quickly express a feeling. The nuances fall by the wayside. The complexity of the issue is overlooked. No search for a compromise. Why this trend in our time...? One reason is certainly the filter bubbles that are omnipresent in both internet search engines and social media. Our news is filtered. They are tailored to our profile. We only see one-sided comments and information that correspond exactly to our interests; the algorithm does not show us the flipside. If you are only confronted with your own opinion and are ever confirmed, then you are living in a comfortable opinion bubble. The American activist Eli Pariser warned us back in 2011 in his book "The Filter Bubble: What the Internet is hiding from you". My first question raises new questions: Do we simply tolerate unscrupulous internet and social media big players sacrificing all diversity of opinion on the altar of their profit? Wouldn't it be time to take countermeasures, both through a consistent explanation of how filter bubbles work and through active training in "debating", preferably in the same real space?
