Cable boxes are descramblers. And if you want to buy your own cable box nothing can stop you. But if you want to use it you have to tell the cable company and pay for their service.
Actually, im pretty sure all modern tvs have descrablers built in, which is why noone has cable boxes anymore.

See, around here in Indiana, anyone who has premium channels HAS to have a cable box. All of the digital cable requires a digital cable receive, which decodes all of the video. Hence, descrambler.
If every new tv had a descrambler, then everyone who had cable would have all the premium channels.
Oh, and every TV manufacturer would be in court with the cable companies.
