Everything released in France, similar to how every major browser have different download binary for China.
What’s stopping them to use that as a sensoring tool for not allowing people to access our website talking s*** about the government?
Nothing, that’s the real issue with oppossing this as once it’s passed it will never be reverted and give the power forever (technically it can be changed, but it never happens in lowering the goverment power).
I suspect the law will fail to pass due to it being to hard to enforce, but you never know with idealogical fanatics.

Yeah but I thought that most OS’s on china track that you are actually installing the binary for that region. What’s stopping me from using a different binary? You are definitely right, it’s too hard to enforce it without creating a whole bunch of other measurements
Nothing, it’s stupid unenforceble law proposal. They expect companies to come up with a solution to their created problem, but browser companies have no incentive to do so.
I always found it fascinating how some governments will just throw the ball to the companies like… figure it out I guess?
I was talking to a friend about how some states on the US ,now require an ID to get into pornhub. (Although that’s is 1st a breach of privacy and 2nd a logistical nightmare) so what did pornhub did? Just block access from those states. And while that’s great news for VPN companies. It actually defeats the purpose of the legislation. Now they have even less control. Because small pages that will not follow rules like PH will be more insecure and prolific
They don’t.
