I don't know shit about French politics, but hopefully someone over there fights this.

Wasn't the Universal Declaration of Human Rights signed in Paris or something?

Article 19.

Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers.

I'm guessing there would be a legal conflict in French law anyway.

Most european countries have a "Consitutional Court" like US has the Supreme Court. Each law is analyzed there if it's consititional or not before being passed. If they give it a go, then it's nothing that the citizen can do even if in every elementary logic it's against the consitution.

Sounds like the United States.

Hey, both have something in common!
