    I’d guess it’s first gonna be used for streaming TV shows and such. After that it’ll probably be used for absurd things

      I thought they were already being protected by DRM.

        Kinda, but it doesn’t work very well. Using video download manager you can download pretty much every video from the web

          Can you recommend me one that can be used to download DRM protected content from OTT platforms such as Netflix, Amazon Prime and Mubi? Might well as archive the content I watch.

            Sadly I can’t, netflix won’t let me watch anything on Librewolf/Firefox on linux. I’d recommend looking into getting a good proxy, a Jellyfin server and also the *arr stack (Sonarr, etc…)

            It’s way more convenient than ripping every part manually

                Yes, personally I use ProtonVPN. Iirc they don’t care about copyright laws because they don’t really apply in their country, I might be wrong though

                Also make sure your ip doesn’t get leaked by your torrent client
