It isn't, it's just an open source library to talk to the closed source Widevine plugin included with Chrome, or, in this case with keys illicitly obtained from a broken Google plugin that they haven't revoked yet.
There were some open source white box cryptography attempts fifteen or so years ago and they didn't work because of precisely what you say.
- rwmj 9mo agoThanks that makes more sense (and is also a bit disappointing!)
- jervant 9mo agoThat's not true and wouldn't work on OpenBSD anyway (binaries are not compatible). The files you're copying from another device are just encryption keys. OpenWV is implementing the decryption itself: https://github.com/tchebb/openwv https://github.com/tchebb/openwv
- Mindwipe 8mo agoI did say that in the second half of the sentence. But it still isn't an example of someone shipping an open source DRM module - it's just software to crack DRM with a leaked key. (Incidentally and this is not legal advice, but if you are in one of many European territories and downloading software from Git here I would encourage people to think about the possibility you are committing an actual criminal offence by doing so, as you are "importing" it by virtue obtaining it from a US entity.)
