Thanks for sharing. I'll never drink Riffault again. And thank you for reminding us how France's anti-defamation laws really work to keep people from calling out atrocious behavior. I remember having to sit on my hands during the extremely drawn-out trial of Marc Sibard for sexual assault and harassment, unable to report anything until the guilty verdict was rendered (https://emmabentleyvino.wordpress.com/2017/07/06/marc-sibard-in-court-for-harassment-and-sexual-assaults/). As you point out, these aggressors' senses of impunity are enforced in a very concrete way by a legal system that makes it so hard (and so expensive) to convict them, and a media landscape in which everyone is afraid to hold them to account.
