How can France force them? Just don’t do it.
- alexisns 3y agowell otherwise France can ask its ISP's to just block Mozilla in France if it doesn't comply
- planede 3y agoAnd also block 3rd party (linux distro) repositories that also ship Firefox?
- anthk 3y agoInria for sure would love that /s... The week after Guix-HPC users see their Hydras blocked, the goverment it's fucked over by a call from "a big boss" from corpos relying on reproducible scientific materials and the guy who did that "great idea" fired in the spot to save up some asses (and Euros).
- justin66 3y agoThis petition, and the Mozilla blog post someone linked to upthread, are designed to make it look like Mozilla did everything they could prior to capitulating. Of course it's dumb. They should just say they won't do it. Presumably their desire to continue operating in France is a lot stronger than their dedication to the principles involved and that is why they are taking this approach.
- Zuiii 3y agoThe only reason to spend resources supporting this abandoned browser is because it claims to stand up for our rights. The day it stops is the day supporting it becomes meaningless. Mozilla made a lot of stupid decisions in the past but if they do this, I'm finally dropping firefox when I test my sites.
