They are fighting the spirit of the law...
in one case they will give up info and another they won't..

"no continuity, they either do or don't."
I don't care who they hand data on French users to; all I care about is what's done with data relating to computers from the US. IP geolocation isn't as bad as some would like to think. It's quite accurate in the vast majority of cases where I've seen it used properly. I don't like that they've played the Chinese government's ballgame, but I understand why they did it. It's tough to cut yourself out of 1/6th of the world's population. My hope is that they use their position and influence to nudge the Chinese government out of their way enough to keep the Chinese people reasonably informed.
