Claims That French Government Has Cut Off Internet Access in France Are False
July 3rd, 2023Update: Macron Accused of Authoritarianism After Threat to Cut Off Social Media

If you’re seeing messages on social media about the Internet being down in France: That’s false. As of 14:45 UTC, the Internet is working normally in France.
I’m able to browse the Internet though my VPN with an exit node in Paris. Both French sites and international sites look normal to me.
There is definitely no widespread Internet outage in France at this time.
But don’t take my word for it:
