Sort of.
Widevine has various levels, and there are exploits for the lower ones.
But the upper ones really only have a vulnerability if a hardware key gets extracted, and Netflix shows in higher resolutions are increasingly not available anywhere because of that. Stranger things Season 4 was only available at 720p for more than a month.
- dtx1 4y agoJust checked up on this, currently there are torrents available for Stranger Things Season 4. > Stranger Things S02E09 2160p NF WEB-DL DTS-HD MA 5 1 HDR DV HEVC-FRiENDS So either the DRM Level was reduced after the release (why would they ever do that?) or it was cracked but takes some time to do so.
- Mindwipe 4y agoIt was cracked but they had to burn a hardware exploit to do so and the key was (I assume) subsequently revoked. So they are only doing it sometimes when there is a sufficient buildup of content.
