Internet users in France who frequently download music or films illegally risk losing Web access under a new antipiracy system.
The story "France set to cut Web access for music, film pirates" published November 23, 2007 at 9:55 AM is no longer available on CNET News.
Content from Reuters expires after 30 days.
There is no way this will be able to be enforced.
Technology will just change and stay one-step-ahead.
When will they ever learn?
...leading to widespread riots, protests, strikes, and a general, complete, dissatisfaction amongst the people of France..?
And, now, he supports the exact same "Intellectual-Property" (COPYRIGHT-protectionist CRAP) that our government is, so desperately, trying to shove down our throats (here in America).
Hhhmmm...

- this only affects you if you a. live in france and b. steal music. i don't do either and think the law is fair. the RIAA has it backwards- they should take a page from mr.French- stop suing kids and just shut down their access- see how long it takes file sharing to shut down completely. well that is, after they sue the F out of YouTube and all the other totally illegal file sharing- copyright infringing sites.
