I know that France is trying to block access to Nazi propoganda and all that kind of thing from its population, who voted the right wing extremist Le Pen into second place in the presidential elections last year....

Hope this helps

In all honesty there are no real laws for the internet right now.
Some countries or states/provinces might have there own minor minor laws but as of right now anybody can do or say just about anything on the internet.

Greece outlawed internet access in some public places, such as bars, to prevent online gambling. Now it's legal again. Perhaps you can look for something regarding issues like this. I probably has happened in other countries too.

Not true.
For example, gambling sites are illegal in Canada and the USA.

You can host them off-shore though.
