I was just reacting to your "in that France and Germany do not want
banned content regardless of where it is hosted"

In that case, IIRC, Yahoo! was forced (by judicial fiat) to remove
that content from their servers worldwide precisely because French
users COULD access it (even if it was not hosted on yahoo.fr).

But it was long ago, and my memory is not what it once was and there
were a number of rulings over a long period of time.
