It seems French society will soon embark on the path to total VPNization. Once the government gets a taste of blocking Internet resources, it won't stop.

They are already trying to make them outlawed... I don't like criticizing the country but the national motto's first word, there are making it nothing but a joke. Apparently you are only free to hate now, and that's if you hate the right kind of people... Bolstered by fascists united worldwide. A shame.

The Wikipedia page doesn't list a thousand websites. Someone in Belgium should update it. Is there a CUIIliste for Belgium?

Don't worry we'll embark on the protofascism path before and it'll bring its own share of problems

Aren't you already on that path now and that's why the population is revolting against it?
