To give you some insight about the situation in France: > It is very difficult to maintain diversity. Challengers can hardly face the leader head on. Amazon's dominance in e-commerce can always be put into perspective, as it only represents 13% of commerce in France today. Its position is much less dominant in France than in the United States. Except that e-commerce is far from having reached its saturation point.

A new element like canvas, except that model should be allowed to only draw 3d scenes? At this point they should just implement the w3c X3D specificiation into the browser with an integrated renderer (like SVG), so that we do not have to rely on x3dom anymore. Since SVG is not blocked, I do not see why X3D would be blocked.

This is explained by Foucault: if you think that you are being watched, you will censor yourself. He uses the panopticon as metaphor: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panopticon. Bauman later called our situation "Post-Panopticism".
Nice racism you got here
