Those were not DCP LLC's promises. The promises DCP LLC makes are very carefully laid out in the HDCP License Agreement and related documents. They primarily target content producers, not consumers, and seek to assure them of a relatively robust control system that can be shown to prevent users from doing things the producers do not want. It's very clear - control over the content or bust. Enforcement is reasonable strict. Even to make HDCP components, to integrate components etc etc - all is carefully outlined. If you read these docs it will be CRYSTAL clear that the promise is not around preserving any user rights.
