France Goes After Kick Over Streamer's Livestreamed Death

France is pursuing negligence claims and arrest warrants against managers of Kick, the Australia-based platform that hosted a 12-day live broadcast of abuse before streamer Raphaël Graven died in August 2025. Kick remains under investigation. The case pushes a duty-of-care standard — meaning platforms must proactively protect users — beyond reactive content removal, with potential reach across borders.
