Well... They could give France the finger and stop to provide any Google service to any french citizen. They could replace GMail, Google Apps for domain and Youtube for all their non-paying users with a page explaining that they cannot continue to operate in France seen how unreasonable the requests from the french government are getting.

There are already a lot of other domains where the french government would like to open its big mouth but has to shut up thanks to Europe being in power.
