They could have the ISPs block Mozilla web presence I suppose.
ISPs in France, sure. They would have to convince ISPs elsewhere in the world to do it, and it wouldn't be a popular move if ISPs start letting foreign governments censor stuff. Would the ISPs decide the bad press is worth making the French government happy, is the question.
Sorry I wasnโt intending to imply that isps out of France would comply, just that getting the French ones to block Mozilla would prevent the vast majority of the country from accessing their browser (at current level of technical acuity).
