The population of just Europe, Canada and the USA is a combined is over 1 billion. I would say those are the most common countries where people pay for VPNs.

Let's say one billion flat minus France. If just 1% of those people subscribe to a VPN at 5$/month, that's 1.2 billion dollars annually.

Who would you rather alienate, assuming they would have to alienate one or the other?

The could also just see where you are connecting from and disable this feature for just french connections. Steam can do it for NSFW games in Germany.

Congratulations? This has absolutely nothing at all to do with what I've said. Not even tangentially. I'm expressly and singularly speaking of France here. EU, Canada and the US combined populations change nothing about what I've said at all...

You look to be fighting a wet paper bag here... Sad to see honestly.
