Netflix France’s vice president of content Pauline Dauvin has warned that France’s newly expanded investment obligations for streamers risk turning cultural diversity into a “checklist,” arguing that rules designed to broaden creative output could threaten editorial freedom and weaken the country’s production ecosystem.

In an op-ed published in Le Monde and titled “More Obligations, Less Diversity: Why We’re Challenging France’s New Rules,” Dauvin says the streamer is appealing new “diversity” obligations introduced at the start of the year because they impose a rigid editorial blueprint on subscription streaming services.
