That's the wrong answer. Is not only up to the French citizen. Is likely to tell that the worldwide pressure that Amnesty International does on each single HR violation is void, but is not. All of us can do some, writing letters to the French Prime Minster AND the French President to tell them that they just CAN'T decide that "I'm not free to share my knowledge"... this is like to try to control my mind, so is a violation of the basic Human Rights... no way! All of us we MUST write them and collect undersignatures to the open letter and physically send it to them.
Don't think that this is just a French issue!
Cheers Pino

What action can be taken by French citizens? By other people? How soon must action be taken?
I'm afraid that only French citizens can do something. The EUCD.INFO initiative proposes some actions : http://www.eucd.info/agir
The EUCD.INFO initiative was launched by FSF France.
