Highly doubtful that any law could actually do this. The enforcement would be highly costly, time consuming and have low impact. Unless they can walk around and then shoot people who violate the law.

I also don't get the distinction between "free" and shared wifi. If they have trouble tracking people using shared wifi, then does it really matter if they pay or not?

I mean if France's favorite restaurant included wifi access with their Royale with Cheese, it wouldn't help anything.
