French Law Endangers Googles Very Existence, Threatens Country-Wide News Boycott

Google-FranceWhat happens if Google boycotts an entire country's news content?

France complains that Google is raking in advertising revenue off of others' work, while Google counters that they've sent over 4 billion clicks to French sites each month.
