I'm sure in the future they'll have a firmware update system for rotating their keys if they've been leaked. And if you try to keep your TV offline to prevent the key rotation, they'll still rotate the encryption key for the stream (maybe wait a year for most people to receive the firmware update), and your offline TV won't be able to decode the stream anymore

    They've been leaked for 15 years now.

    Yes but I'm saying the tech could get more advanced and locked down, like all DRM tech has been progressing

    shrugs If I can see it, I can capture it. The panel drivers turns it back into pixels before it gets to my eyes. There are many levels of difficulty, but nothing they're about to do can stop me with technology.

    Difficulty can make a big difference. If uploaders have to start making bootleg recordings using camcorders, cleaning up recording artifacts and lighting/reflections from the recording environment and fixing lens distortion etc, all to end up with a mediocre bootleg recording...then I can guarantee you piracy will become extremely rare.

    Popular movies might get the attention and work needed. But good luck for random Youtube videos.
