We don't have all the information of course, only an MCN article

But lets for sake of argument say they have got it right.

It doesn't say speed camera warnings must be switched off in France, it says the devices themselves have been banned (which actually means the software not the device of course).

You are not allowed to have certain radar detector or blocker devices in this country, it doesn't matter that you've got it switched off at the time the police catch you with it.

I think your right though, it won't be enforced because it's unenforceable. Are the police going to sift through every app on the smartphone of every person they stop, to make sure you haven't got a GPS camera warning app on there?
