The DRM doesn’t provide any benefit… to you. It does benefit the developers and publishers. Often you can find out what (if any) DRM is used before you purchas

  >The DRM doesn’t provide any benefit… to you. It does benefit the developers and publishers. That's cool. I don't run software on my machines, using my power, using my bandwidth, and hw resources to make publisher's/developer's lives easier. They want it? They can keep it.

  > Check out GOG.com if you want to avoid DRM entirely. I already avoid most DRMs since they don't normally run on Wine/Proton. (As mentioned, cracks are available and are legal to use for compatibility and archival; though developing nor sharing them is, go figure. Recent document about such circumvention exemptions: https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2021-10-28/pdf/2021-23311.pdf https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2021-10-28/pdf/2021-2...) The other thing is that I use mostly FOSS stuff so I don't normally have to worry about DRM breaking things or causing me issues.
