Amazing! Just changed, glad I was mistaken

The only way I use Youtube is when I click on a link from an external source. I don’t think it’s possible to change the handler to Newpipe in Android unless mistaken.

It absolutely does!

A very large number of exemptions makes the rule difficult to enforce efficiently. For example, those who live or work in the concerned zone can still use their car however they want.

From the official website:

 Quelques exemples où l'on pourra se rendre en voiture dans la zone et y stationner
- J’habite dans la zone
- J'y travaille
- J'y réalise des livraisons
- J'y réalise une consultation médicale
- Je vais dans un magasin/commerce
- Je vais dans une galerie d’art
- Je vais chez des amis
- Je vais au cinéma
- Je réalise une intervention/un dépannage professionnel

So, you just need to pretend going to the cinema or see an exposition to be able to drive there.

The statement is too far from the truth to be accurate. Some private car traffic will be banned in the micro center of Paris. A lot of exemptions will apply and this will change very little ultimately. Still a good move, just not ambitious enough.
