Sites featuring terrorism or child pornography to be blocked in France

"Now, the General Directorate of the National Police and its
cybercrimes unit will be able to request that sites serving terrorist
or pedophilia-related content be blocked by Internet Service Providers
serving people in France and its territories. ISPs then have to comply
with the request within 24 hours. ISPs will be able to request
compensation from the French government for any extra costs incurred
in blocking the sites."

Sorry France, not only is that not going to work, but you'll actually
be making matters worse. Typical.
