[QUOTE]Why this matters: If the copy protection on Amazon and Netflix streams is indeed broken, it would be an embarrassing development for Hollywood, which has taken extreme steps to lock down their content. The introduction of HDCP 2.2 has rendered some early 4K TVs incompatible with streaming services, and even PCs don’t support 4K streams despite being technically capable. Unless the leaks stop, this could shape up into another case of DRM harming legitimate users more than unscrupulous pirates.[/QUOTE]

Why does this matter? well, people who bought 4k capable devices on its launch were shocked to find out that with the later arrival of HDCP 2.2, they would have to replace their tvs, cables, amplifiers, and all relevant connected home theater equitment to view new 4k content, which is thousand dollars down the drain for consumers. And no surprise, it gets cracked a bit later.

Yet another example of why DRM is usless

Whaa? No.. No never. The MPAA would never do such a thing. :v:

If it exists to be cracked, it can be.

I can use 30 GB per month.
It feels like getting fuck'd in the ass, and you pay for it.

Which ISP you are dealing with?

[S31-Syntax]

[QUOTE=Handsome Matt;49270327]09 F9 is a cryptographic key for HD DVDs and Blu-ray Discs letting you unlock their content - it's illegal to post that key in the United States. [URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AACS_encryption_key_controversy"]more here, pretty funny read.[/URL][/QUOTE]

Oh yeah, like the guy who originally cracked DVD encryption was banned from speaking it.

But wasn't banned from baking a cake with it written in frosting on it.
Or making t shirts.
Or writing a song about it.
Or using sign language to communicate it.

There should be a class-action suit against the Hollywood cartel (and by association equipment manufacturers) for false advertising.

[QUOTE=darth-veger;49271448]Which ISP you are dealing with?[/QUOTE]

[I]Tele2 Swipnet[/I]. It's a European established telecompany, that was originally owned and made by a swedish corporation, but now it's owned by the americans. Their marketing strategies and customer offers has gone down the hill for the last 6 years. They've even commited breach of contract (against me), which is a really bad thing here in Scandinavia. I know 4 other people that has this ISP, and they all think it's terrible. I had them for my "smartphone", but I switched over to the ISP [I]Telia[/I] instead. It was alot more expansive, but atleast I give less money to those fuckers. I believe they're in your country aswell.

That's the problem. They will win. They have more money and as well know.. In court the party whom has more money will win. Which raises the question if Legal fee's are removed would this help? in making the court system fair because suddenly your no longer going bankrupt for trying to fight for what's right.

Or, find a lawyer that is willing to do the case pro bono because they recognize the need to fight for a landmark decision.
