Explanation
Option D is correct because keymappers are not illegal in any U.S. state, including California, Maryland, and Connecticut. No state has enacted legislation specifically prohibiting the use of keymapping software or hardware - they are lawful tools used for accessibility, productivity, and gaming customization nationwide.
California (A), Maryland (B), and Connecticut (C) are wrong because they are plausible-sounding distractors that may evoke states known for tech regulation (California) or consumer protection laws (Maryland, Connecticut), but none of them have laws banning keymappers. The question relies on test-takers confusing those states' regulatory reputations with actual keymapper legislation that doesn't exist.
Memory tip: When a question lists specific states as possible sites of a ban and then offers "None of the above," ask yourself whether you've ever heard of such a law. Keymappers are accessibility and productivity tools - if they were banned anywhere, it would be widely known. When in doubt, "None of the above" is often correct for questions about restrictions on broadly legal software tools.
