Can we just stop the shitshow with DRM? I have NEVER encountered a TV show/movie that I could't rip using a torrent either on public p2p sites or a private tracker. But I have seen a lot of my non-technical friends and family having a degraded experience, who pay for their streaming services every month. It was either because they were using a browser or device which was deemed unworthy of full quality streaming by t…

I just want to control the viewing experience, not hoard warez. Effortless rewind, skip filler (car chases, sex), play at x1.25 speed, etc. aka the "Blu-Ray experience". If that means I gotta bypass the DRM and download, so be it. -- Some shows have my complete rapt attention. I'll keenly watch (and rewatch) every single frame. Like Netflix's Maniac. OMG. So frikkin good. (So many other examples.) Other shows, especi…

I have the best possible experience by ripping my own Blu-Rays into my own Plex server, including all the languages, subtitles and commentaries. Easy to use, kids-friendly (no dirty fingers on discs), playable from anywhere, including offline with synced copies, and I don't pay a monthly fee to watch the content I already paid for. I wouldn't go back to subscription-based services, even if that means I have to wait f…

Are you implying that young adults are more responsible for the state of piracy today than adults? I don't see that at all.

I feel like I have to defend the parent here. My experience in the nulling/warez/pirating community is that it tends to be young adults doing the majority of the work and mostly they do it for kudos and not monetary benefit. Adults might be giving them the kudos, but the hard work (again, in my experience) is young adults, of school age.

If I wanted to save an important repo, I would run a command like this: ssh user@rsync.net "git clone --mirror https://github.com/widevindump/Netlix-4K-Script github/2021-12-27-widevindump_Netlix-4K-Script" ... which works because the 'git' binary is maintained on rsync.net and can be executed over ssh[1].

I'd delete this comment if I were you. The copyright cartels have ended lives for less. edit: I tried to keep it simple so that a null-edit would suffice to scrub the comment in question. But since I have to explain - the author runs the service for which they're providing instructions. This creates a straightforward argument that they intend their service to be used for storing forbidden files. Such "contributory in…

or they had the skills to just dump it again Edit: nvm I understood which key you were talking about. I would have replied, but I'm rate limited.

Ah, I thought L1 keys were burned into hardware, so blacklisting this key was effectively blacklisting a bunch of Lenovo tablets from accessing 4K HDR streaming? Edit: looks like I'm wrong about this, and the Widevine L1 keys can be changed with a firmware update. There's an interesting breakdown of how it works on Qualcomm chips here: http://bits-please.blogspot.com/2016/04/exploring-qualcomms-...
