I am comparing customer bases. It really shouldn’t be that difficult to understand that.

Also…fighting a wet paper bag? That’s the best you got?

The population of just Europe, Canada and the USA is a combined is over 1 billion. I would say those are the most common countries where people pay for VPNs.

Let’s say one billion flat minus France. If just 1% of those people subscribe to a VPN at 5$/month, that’s 1.2 billion dollars annually.

Who would you rather alienate, assuming they would have to alienate one or the other?

The could also just see where you are connecting from and disable this feature for just french connections. Steam can do it for NSFW games in Germany.

Objectively speaking, France is not a good portion of their business.

As a European, this looks insane to me.

Capitalism working as intended though, undercutting the competition and all that.
