I think the IEEE is just ethical. Faithfully build the thing you're paid to build. It's probably not fair to call the encryption free splitter an HDMI splitter.

I think the IEEE is just ethical. Faithfully build the thing you're paid to build. It's probably not fair to call the encryption free splitter an HDMI splitter. If you build it, call it something else so you don't dilute the standard.
Of course, i don't have a lot of experience with IEEE, they may actually be super pro-DRM, and my opinion could be swayed.
- Sunset 10y agoNo. Call it exactly what it is encryption-free-HDMI-splitter.
- mlonkibjuyhv 10y agoNon-technical users would think that was a lesser product. I'm thinking RLY-WORKS brand HDMI-splitter

The important questions in business ethics are not whether you faithfully build the thing you're paid to build or build it unfaithfully, but whether that thing ought to be built at all. DRM and DRM circumvention tools can fall on both sides of that divide, it's not an easy question.
