About

Upset over illicit sports streaming websites, Canal+ petitioned a French court to order Google, Cloudflare, Quad9 and Vercara to no longer resolve queries to domains like antenasports.ru. We discuss whether the court's decision to side with Canal+ amounts to "internet censorship" and whether it will have any effect. Check out our accompanying article at royalpalacemedia.com


A few precisions/corrections:

- Canal+ Groupe has been recently restructured such what we said about Vavendi is not longer up-to-date (the firm remains nonetheless under the control of the Bolloré family).

- The acronym for the Inter-planetary File System is "IPFS" but Patrick mistakenly says IFS because interplanetary is arguably one word.

- Our website does not have a certificate issued by Cloudflare, but rather Google Trust Services which is one of the five certificate authorities Cloudflare uses to issues SSL certs.
