Argentine legislative and regulatory reforms

Overview

Argentina is advancing various legislative measures to regulate digital access and communication. In the Chamber of Deputies, the “Ley Ema” was approved to combat digital harassment in schools. This framework introduces updated curricula, mandatory teacher training, and protocols for responding to harassment, while also regulating mobile phone use in secondary school classrooms.

Concurrently, legislators are proposing reforms to the penitentiary regime to prevent inmates from coordinating criminal activities. Proposed measures include banning mobile phones in favor of supervised communication systems and implementing a color-coded uniform system based on prisoner danger levels. In Mendoza, provincial authorities are moving to reclassify cell phone possession by inmates as a serious offense following incidents involving live streaming from within prisons.
