This is an important concern for any US citizen who may migrate their domains to a Gandi. French law differs dramatically from US laws when it comes to matters of libel, slander and privacy. Why does this matter? If your a US site, and you piss off someone in France then the pissed off individual has a target local to them (Gandi) who they can send legal threats to based on French laws. Or really a mixture of US and French laws. If you would like to look up more on the subject when dealing with international law conflicts, consider reviewing US-EU safe harbor.
