      I get that they aren't supplying the content, but who are they marketing to?

      Most of the world is not affected by US DRM laws.

      Not true at all, we get your DRM'd junk here because there's no money in making one that suits our less restrictive laws

        But the DRM doesn't affect you. Just rip and use, you own the content. DRM primarily relies on laws that take away your right to use or own what you buy. It's not technology, it's legalities and corruption that make it possible.

          DRM does not affect us - just do things that you wouldn't need to do if DRM wasn't present?

          😛

          How about the insanity of HDCP on HDMI?

                Might be the easiest, most obvious task that there is in the whole of IT. What the heck CAN he do?

                That was my question as well. This customer site hates their MSP, doesn't like to call them at all, so we get technical questions. I now see that they are incompetent as well as hard to work with.

                    The two generally go hand in hand.

                                    I'm not... and I live in the US. I just rip my own junk, and share with family & friends via Plex... If the feds show up, I'd likely be one of the folks involve in a court challenge.

                                      If you choose to ignore them, those laws won't affect you. DRM is just 3 random letters to me, it in no way restricts what I watch, or download, or stream, or anything. Seize your personal sovereignty, let no one tell you that you are not master of your own domain.

                                            New project dumped on me. Office 2013/2016 telemetry... full setup/deployment for accounting department.

                                            I need to go from no knowledge and never having anything to do with it, to fluent and getting it up and running in a manageable and usable way to pin down some issues in a meaningful way.

                                            Fun times ahead...
