How do you know, if you are that you are indeed breaking DRM vs just doing complicated stuff with a firmware?
It seems obvious if there's PKI in there somewhere. But aside that, how do you tell the difference?
Might I add that the old proposed "Broadcast Flag" would have been a bit in the HDTV stream to signal no_copy. Changing that bit would have broken the DMCA.

- bediger4000 14y agoOddities like that render "intellectual property" useless. Since copyright (in the USA) lasts for life-of-author + 70 years, or 90 years for corporate authorship, you can't tell on the face of some information whether it is "property" or not. You need to know when/if the author died.
