Mexico will demand that social media platforms remove violent content following the deadly attack on a school.

Following a recent school shooting, the Mexican government has announced plans to curb the spread of violent digital content. President Claudia Sheinbaum has initiated the creation of an interinstitutional working group tasked with addressing the dissemination of such material online, citing identified similarities between recent violent incidents.

To support these efforts, the administration is preparing a decree that would mandate digital platforms to actively detect and remove content that incites violence. This policy shift aims to mitigate the influence of online material on real-world violence following the fatal attack at a school involving two armed youths.
