It's already illegal to shoot guns at people.
Many commenters here oversimplify the problem. Do not forget that Google is in a monopolistic position. Deindexing newspaper web pages could be considered as Google using their monopoly as an advantage.
They would be deindexing at the request of the French legal system, not at the request of management.
The monopolistic position you're referring to is search, which is equivalent to Bing's search (which Bing has the data to show). Continuing with the Bing-Google equivalency hypothesis, adds will be removed from the French news page, creating no ad revenue.
It is easier to write an incorrect program than understand a correct one.
