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.
Sure, but how far do you take it? Are you going to hit Valve/Sony/MSFT for failing to block people who use VPNs or other means to hide their locations? Or just require them to do something superficial?
