French Employees Encouraged to Shut Off Email After 6 p.m. Editors' note: The original version of this story stated that it was illegal for employees in France to answer work emails after 6 p.m. This was referring to an agreement that only affects a portion of employees within certain unions, not a countrywide ban or law. We have updated this article to reflect that. How does Mashable know what's going viral?
