Can you tell me what point you are making? I thought I was being crystal clear but I’ll try again:
Breaking the encryption is illegal. That is circumvention of the protection system and therefore is specifically illegal. Playback is obviously “decryption” but that is the intended use, so it is quite clearly not illegal.
No one said anything you are implying was said. All that was said is this ^
What good would copy protection be…
Was not said to say that it’s impossible to break. Nothing like that was even closed to implied. It was said because you claimed all one needs to do is copy a disc and it will work. Which is hilarious because the implication would be that they developed a copy protection system that literally did: not almost nothing, but precisely nothing. Go ahead and try to clone a hollywood DVD. I tried it too back in 1999, because I just knew I understood everything. Guess what, that doesn’t work. You have to break the encryption.
