   The bill, called the Consumer Broadband and Digital Television
   Promotion Act (CBDTPA), prohibits the sale or distribution of nearly
   any kind of electronic device -- unless that device includes
   copy-protection standards to be set by the federal government.

Act (CBDTPA) is available here:
