- Continued simultaneous access will result in persistent error messages, preventing legitimate users from accessing Le Monde content. Resolution requires either device-specific access control or an upgrade to a suitable account plan for shared access.

Cognitive Concepts
Framing Bias
The repetitive nature of the message framing might unintentionally create a sense of urgency or annoyance, potentially influencing the reader to take immediate action without fully considering alternatives. The focus on the problem ('another person is reading your account') precedes solutions, which are presented as a series of conditional options.
Language Bias
The language used is generally neutral, although the repeated phrase "Parce qu'une autre personne (ou vous)" could be perceived as slightly accusatory or distrustful. The instructions are clear but lack warmth or empathy. Alternatives could include more positive phrasing, like "To ensure seamless access," or "For the best experience,
Bias by Omission
The message omits information on how to identify the other device accessing the account, or how to remotely log out from it. It also doesn't clarify the account's sharing policy in detail. This omission could leave the user frustrated or confused.
False Dichotomy
The message presents a false dichotomy: either the user is alone accessing the account or multiple people are. It doesn't consider situations where a legitimate family member might access the account concurrently. The solution is framed as either ensuring solo access or upgrading the subscription. This is an oversimplification.
