Yep, that was my thought. Even without OS. It would only work for compiled browsers built within the legal jurisdiction of France. Anyone else would have 0 motive to obey them. And French people would just download non-French browsers.
Makes it very clear the proposer knows less than 0 about how the Internet works. And has spent even less effort thinking about it. Has he somehow not thought china would have done this, if it was in any way effective?

Any browsers currently compiled aren’t compiled in France anyway… so that goes for all current browsers, even ones with french language packs.
I guess they could cause google and Firefox to serve up a geofenced version, but through DNS and VPNs it’s pretty easy to circumvent that.
