France’s browser-based website blocking proposal will set a disastrous precedent for the open internet – Open Policy & Advocacy

Article 6 (para II and III) of the SREN Bill would force providers to create the means to mandatorily block websites on a government provided list encoded into the browser.

In a well-intentioned yet dangerous move to fight online fraud, France is on the verge of forcing browsers to create a dystopian technical capability.

    What in the authoritarian bullshit is this nonsense? I wholly encourage French people to VPN and download un-fucked with browsers from elsewhere if this takes effect.
