I think there are probably uses cases for both. In the case I was talking about in the other thread for creators wanting to monetise content then DRM may be desirable so that only a user that had paid for the content can view it. In the case of a digital asset that has some sort of terms of service allowing use then DRM doesn’t work.

If you can view it you can snatch it. So no way around it. Can restrict url based on cookies for sure. Rehosting it breaks that protection! 🐶🐾🫡

Yeah I was thinking more for video content where it is harder to get a perfect copy if the stream was encrypted but you could obviously still do a screen record of it.

Video is surprisingly easier. Well developed and usable by common plebs. Many DRM solutions in place! 🐶🐾🫡

Lol, I hadn’t looked into this but yes from a quick search it looks like there are tools that are easily available to bypass the common DRM mechanisms.
