Google should put a SOPA like blackout to Free's French consumers
The majority of Internet services are supported by advertising. I think it is is OK if a few customers decide to take steps to block ads on their browsers. But when an ISP does that, it creates a ridiculous situation (Fast Company: http://www.fastcompany.com/3004452/french-isp-free-blocks-all-web-advertising).
I think Google and other large players should limit access to free services (Gmail, Search etc) by putting up a SOPA like blackout for at least for 1 day. This blockade should not be seen as a use of force or coercion but rather a gentle reminder to users saying that ad revenue is important to Internet based free services. And that they should request their ISP to not to unilaterally block advertising. I also suggest that the services be limited only briefly and that the user can go past and continue to use the product after seeing the message.
I believe that an action like this will raise awareness of ad supported services and hopefully French consumers will force French ISP to reconsider its decision.
