I'm French and I really don't think this law will ever pass. Not how it's currently written.

In France, we have something called the "conseil constitutionnel" which checks that every law voted by the parliament is in accordance with our constitution. This law violates a lot of basic rights. For example, the "presomption d'innoncence" guaranties that people can't be arrested without proofs, and that they don't have to prove that they're not guilty; the government has to prove that they are.
