I absolutely hate this trend. If my eyeballs can see it, the camera on my phone can. Or a cheap HDMI capture card with a leaked HDCP key. They just want to screw over non-techie people who don't know about these workarounds.
I just learned about HDCP. What if you have display without HDCP support? This just sounds like a stupid idea.
Edit: Apparently laptops and computers should have that too. Is there any way I can test it on demand?

Edit 2: Intel just discontinued HDCP on Linux at start of this year.
That depends on the software in question, but generally it will play a degraded version of the content.
The vast majority of people are non-techies, and that’s quite profitable.
