They introduced something similar for the UK, as part of Terrorism powers - there was a big stink when it turned out that the Metropolitan (London) Police had continuously designated the entire of Greater London as such a zone continuously for years, as soon as the law was passed.

- goatforce5 13y agoI was stopped and searched in the City of London under terrorism laws for acting suspiciously and "doing a double take" when I saw a police car. I was simply looking twice before crossing the road, but there you go... As it happens I was heading in to a meeting with a client who I was doing some web dev work for at the time. They published a porn magazine, and I had a big pile of their magazines in my bag. To her credit, the cop who was searching me didn't even raise an eyebrow when she saw them.
