I wish guides about cracking DRM for legally purchased content were more popular
The reason they aren’t is because methods for cracking DRM like Widevine are kept extremely secret so that the exploits don’t get patched. It does mean that a lot of content is locked to whatever the scene decides is worth their time to crack and distribute, but if anyone made the methods they use public, they would stop working very quickly.
This happened with a version of Denuvo. Someone leaked an unobfuscated cracked version of a game (I think it was Need for Speed), giving Denuvo the opportunity to study how their protection got cracked.
Not more than once.
Remember kids, if buying isn’t owning, piracy isn’t stealing!
Remember kids, if buying is owning, piracy still isn’t stealing. You can make infinite copies of digital media.
Want me to buy your media legally? Oh please, this is tremendously easy to do for a corporation!
- Downloadable files (you have files, right? Otherwise how are you streaming out the stuff)
- …with open codecs (you are using an open codec right? Otherwise you have to encode your stuff like 10 times for 10 different devices each with its own idiosyncrasy)
- …without DRM (you have clean copies right? it’d not be smart to base a business model on files you can’t open, see the above)
- …at an aggregate price that’s lower than paying for TV cable (you can cash in only a bit, right? It’s digital media and your competition is literally over-the-air TV with extra steps, it’s not like you have the mother of pearl of cancer cures here)
This kind of shitfuckery has been going on for as long as DRM has been around and yet people still fall for the scam.
I will genuinely never pay for a streaming service again lmao
Can you pm me some links? Already cut Netflix looking to reduce the monthly bill.
This should be the only one you need 99% of the time
Both https://rentry.co/megathread and https://fmhy.net/ are both great indexes for piracy sites and more, on the vpn side proton, mullvad(they disabled port forwarding so seeding torrents is much slower so they aren’t recommended as much), and air vpn are all decent.
You all weren’t buying even before that. Stop rationalizing. You’re poor and that’s why you pirate.
