They are free to try and compel them and Mozilla would be free to stop operating in France.
What does "stop operating in France" even mean? It's not like they are selling their browser to the French people...
France would probably block Mozilla's website
That's trivially easy for people to get around though.
Most people won’t though. That’s the issue
And then when in France, I can simply use some other open source browser. This kind of shows how dumb politicians are. Next up? You shouldn't be able to access dangerous software like GitHub, let's block that!
