ProtonVPN Fights French Pirate Site Blockades, But Court Rejects Overblocking Fears

ProtonVPN has fought back hard against a pirate site blocking request in France, but without result. In two separate cases, the Paris Judicial Court rejected the company's arguments, including violations of the EU's Open Internet Regulation, technical complications, and overblocking concerns. While this is a disappointing outcome for the VPN provider, it likely won't be the last legal battle.
