That's ok. Browsers don't have to work in EU or France.

Meh.
Their regime is not terribly different from the UK or Canada.
(Look it up.)

The US has a strong first ammendment, few other countries do.
At least they don't rewrite their constitution every other week or ignore it every day.

Countries typically have the governments they tolerate.

That said, instead of trying to hide behind the browser companies, they should do as China and censor at their ISPs.
