As stupid as this proposed ban is, the author of this article does not seem to understand that it is Sony/Microsoft/Valve who have to comply with the ban. The state doesn't have to do anything other than pass the law and/or regulation. Sony/Microsoft/Valve need to figure out the 'how' - and if they can't, pay the fines.
That's correct, but then the issue does become Federal. It's not like the state can easily collect on those fines from out-of-state entities without the backing of Federal courts.
