Curfews
A curfew is a time limitation on martial law. Citizens may be told, for example, that if they are seen on the streets between 8pm and 6am, they are liable to be summarily murdered. This is an attempt to limit the invidious nature of permanent martial law while still suppressing effective resistance of the citzens.

Cultural references
The film Gray State was planned to depict the imposition of martial law in the USA, after compulsory chipping, food shortages and hyperinflation. A concept trailer was posted on YouTube, but the film itself was never made due to the sudden death of one of the creators (David Crowley).[1][2][3]

| Charles Mountbatten-Windsor | “We've so degraded natural systems, eco-systems, biodiversity, that it's becoming increasingly impossible for nature to sustain us...At the moment it's all take, take. Now we've reached the situation where we really need four planets like earth to survive or provide enough for everybody....So what do we do? Without doubt we must now put ourselves on a war-like footing, approaching our action from the perspective of a military-style campaign. That way, working together we can combat this most grave and urgent challenge. If we have the resolve to shift our trajectory we must start now, by bringing forward our net zero target.” | Charles Mountbatten-Windsor | 2020 |
