À Milan, une affiche Apple montre un tout petit enfant qui tient un iPhone couvert d'une substance gluante, sous le slogan "Tutto ok, è iPhone", tout va bien, c'est un iPhone. L'autorité italienne de protection de l'enfance ne l'a pas du tout prise comme une blague.

Le visuel appartient à la campagne mondiale "Relax, it's iPhone", qui décline depuis des mois le même gag d'un téléphone qui ressort indemne des petites catastrophes du quotidien. Ici, la catastrophe a deux ans et les mains pleines de bouillie.

Une habitante de Milan, dérangée par l'image, l'a signalée à l'AGIA, l'autorité garante de l'enfance et de l'adolescence. Celle-ci a embrayé direct.

Pour l'autorité, cette affiche banalise le baby-sitting électronique, cette habitude de coller un smartphone dans les mains des très jeunes enfants pour avoir la paix, avec un risque de dépendance à la clé et des conséquences sur leur développement psychologique et cognitif.

Le dossier a du coup été transmis à trois organismes, le régulateur des communications, l'autorité de la concurrence et l'institut d'autodiscipline publicitaire, pour d'éventuelles suites. Aucune décision n'est tombée pour le moment. bien sûr, c'est un peu tôt encore.

Apple voulait probablement dire autre chose : votre téléphone survivra si le petit dernier s'en empare, l'écran encaisse la bave et la purée de carottes. Sauf que voilà, sur ce panneau, le double sens existe, et il ne reste qu'un bébé absorbé par un iPhone.

Le moment est mal choisi. Plusieurs pays débattent d'un âge minimum pour les réseaux sociaux, et les autorités de santé répètent depuis des années qu'avant trois ans, l'écran est à proscrire tout court.

On comprend le problème, et il faut dire que l'image est gênante pour une marque qui vante par ailleurs son mode Temps d'écran et ses outils de contrôle parental à chaque conférence.

Apple n'a pas commenté. La campagne, elle, poursuit tranquillement sa tournée mondiale.
