Yep, that was my thought. Even without OS. It would only work for compiled browsers built within the legal jurisdiction of France. Anyone else would have 0 motive to obey them. And French people would just download non-French browsers.

Makes it very clear the proposer knows less than 0 about how the Internet works. And has spent even less effort thinking about it. Has he somehow not thought china would have done this, if it was in any way effective?

Not just remove, use it as reference

Politicians really don’t understand how this all works do they?

For tech-savvy people, not really. And if they do they don't want to make us mad. We're InNovAtoRS, after all! (I mean we often are, but it's still hard not to roll one's eyes at such a buzzwordy thing)

For the average Joe who just uses the Chrome browser a device ships with, this could have an effect.
