As another tid-bit, in the early days of the open-source AMD driver effort there were concerns around exposing GPU video acceleration in the open-source driver as to not potentially compromise HDCP / digital video restrictions with MPEG-LA and the like.
How much of this fuckery boils down to the corporate media imposing DRM—all of it, or only most of it?
Most of it. There are still a small handful of “open source is worthless, forget about it” holdouts in this particular problem space.
This reminds me of like how Deadpool’s test scene “accidentally” leaked to push through the Deadpool movie after it was rejected by the studio. Ended up benefiting everyone and opened the door to R-rated superhero movies
