I didn't mean to pick on France.
As far as I know the Netherlands only had a single blocked site (the
Pirate Bay) which is no longer blocked. It was never secret. So there
is one country that does not have a secret list. ;)
In countries like the Netherlands where blocks are enacted through
court orders, these tend to be public. But you are right in general
block lists are secret; even though leaked versions have shown that they
block sites outside of their intended scope.
