Whenever anything bad comes up, France is first to implement it, or litigate about it, see three strikes laws and others that I can't name off the top of my head.

On a more sinister note...this sounds like France is actually trying to piss off MS again by proxy of subsidiary.
Love the Twitter the local fire department joke though.
