Firefox being free software, it wouldn't make much sense for them to try and do something like this. So obviously we know that Mozilla would never go along with such an absurd law and start doing censorship on behalf of France. ... right, Mozilla? Slightly strange that you didn't say so?

Why forcing the browsers? Couldn't they just make a law for ISPs to block specific domains?

Why do right wingers hate freedom so much?

"Do you not know my son, with how little wisdom the world is governed?" 🤷‍♂️

Ok, it's a freedom and free speech nightmare, but are they stupid or something? They are aiming for the browsers instead of ISPs (and DNSes?)?

I do not like france

So things like curl or lynx would be illegal eh? Good luck enforcing those.

Can we sign it even it we don't live in France?

How the fuck could a law like that possibly be enforceable? Mozilla should just tell them to go fuck themselves, offer alternative IPs so people can get around country-wide DNS blocks, and then go about their day. Who cares what some spineless country wants?

If worse comes to worst, someone can fork Firefox and remove the in-browser censorship. That is the beauty of FOSS.

Now imagine if something like this would happen after Google manages to DRM the internet? You won't even be able to fork the browser...

Whelp, I signed in the dumbest way possible. Signed under the name Lupine Arsène. Only thing I regret is not putting the country as France to complete the dumb joke.

Somehow, I don't think ruthless authoritarians are going to care about what the little people think.

Signed. Although I wanted to ask if it has any value if it was signed by someone from outside of France/not French?

Signed. Enough with this kind of bullshit in the EU.

Maybe this is a stupid question, but how does France have jurisdiction to force features into a web browser made by an American company?

Can someone explain how this is enforceable??
