Honest question... Why does Rumble have to block France? Shouldnt it be Frances job to block its citizens? Where is Rumble hosted? If in the US I would tell them to pound sand.
France blocking Rumble equals accepting more (((tyrannical government censorship)))
Rumble blocking France equals telling (((tyrannical government censorship))) to fuck off
Which one do you prefer now?
The second. I'm sure people in France know what a VPN is.
Hosted in US.
I don't understand that part of it either, or what recourse France would have. Fine them, okay well under what authority? How would France collect any fine if it is a US company with no French assets? Would the US freeze Rumble's assets to pay France?
A lot of questions, that is probably why Chris says they are looking into the legality of all this.
I think france started with the premise that, rumble was just like another youtube or whatever, solely driven by corporate interests, willing to sell their souls essentially as long as they can sell it, ready to accept pretty much any compromise as long as they can tap into any given market... And rumble noped the fuck out of it, france thought rumble was willing to accept anything to avoid to get banned, like any other random business only operation
Now "france" doesn't mind to get banned from rumble, it's just that they thought they mattered more to rumble than they actually did. Their only retaliatory tool was a ban anyways...
So it's basically, "you can't fire me, I quit!".
