That's actually what is proposed by this law......just the "right to disconnect". I'm in France, and I've seen the original proposal, and there is absolutely no mention of ban or anything prohibiting companies to send emails, just the right to ignore them when sent after work.

There is no such thing like a "ban opf afterwork emails", just the right for an employee not to consult or answer his emails once he has finished his day. That's very different and it is called "droit à la déconnexion" (right to disconnect).

Well, we don't forget. Reason why Sarkozy will not be re-elected. That's just a political move after the Toulouse killings, but that's just impossible that such a law get voted.

"particularly Wikipedia, which in 11 years has helped replace the authority of experts with the wisdom of the crowds". I like that one: Sounds like replacing Artificial Intelligence with Natural Stupidity.

That reminds me that some years ago (in the 90's), scientists concluded that it was impossible for processors to go above 500 Mhz. Prediction is very difficult, especially about the future (Niels Bohr)
