French goons shoot themselves in the foot

The French military (the Direction centrale du renseignement intérieur) forced the closure of a Wikipedia page in French  about a French military radio station. 

The page was subsequently reinstated by someone in nearby Switzerland, where  French is also spoken.  As a result of an internet hue and cry, the "censored" page has become the most read page in French Wikipedia! 

The goons who wanted to suppress information ended up spreading it far and wide!  They don't seem to have decided what to do next but they clearly can't win now.

Details here.

Well of course the best way to promote anything is to have it banned somewhere (whether contrived or fortuitously).

All of the internet is yours, mes amis, except this page. Attempt no click there.

The best way to keep a secret is to not let anyone know that there is a secret being kept.

Wish I could have seen the reactions of the left wing limp wriasters throwing their hysterical tantrum like 3 year olds.
