First they strip people's internet privacy, then they ban VPNs, now protests...
What the hell is happening to France?
France banned VPNs? I doubt that. How am I supposed to work from home for my company?
Not yet, it's just a proposal for now.

I think banks would oppose that
I can guarantee you that is never going to happen. You ban VPNs and all the companies R&D departments will leave. A VPN is an essential part of corporate data infrastructure. If a company is unable to secure intellectual property, it will move it elsewhere, leaving only sales and manufacturing, at best.
And since France is in Schengen, I'm sure other European countries would love to get those corporate taxes for themselves.
They didn't. They considered it.
