Orthodox Jews just turn everything off from Friday afternoon to well after sundown Saturday night. No interruptions are allowed. The idea of Sabbath is to break away from being enslaved by the demands of life and our work and bring ourselves back into a state of peace with Nature and with God. True freedom can be found by giving oneself the gift of rest to thank God for letting us pause to appreciate the beautiful world He created in which we are privileged to live.

Exactly. No laws needed (especially laws that discriminate against those who observe Sabbath on Saturday by making criminals out of those who engage in normal activities on Sunday).
