Huh? They are the opposite - someone from another country can remotely control my phone/computer/car. Seems like a trojan
- TeMPOraL 2y agoNo, they're very much the same - only for the people pushing DRM, you are the threat actor in the secure system. This is direct in case of media companies; for banks, you may be a "valued customer", but your phone is considered a threat actor; their excuse is that your phone (or you) could be pwnd. And then, in general, service providers see potential competitors as threat actors, too. Security tech is, by its very nature, a tool of control. Whether that's good or bad for you, depends on who's in control.
