>he uses HDMI

Quite literally enjoy your botnet

How the fuck can a cable be a botnet?

>can tell when you are being a bad goy and blocks the signal like pic related

HDCP hasn't been platform specific for the last decade you dumbnut.

It's actually a ridiculous technology, not a single piece of content was ever protected by it and it's ridiculously easy to crack with Chinese companies actually selling ready to go hardware that does everything for you and with media corporations not being able to do fuck-all about it because those devices actually don't violate anything at all.

It really shows how deep inside their asses corporations keep their heads.

HDMI DRM only applies to DRM enabled content.
If you buy anything protected by DRM, not only you're actively supporting this, but you also deserve it.

Ive never seen dis. All my torrented movies work fine via hdmi

Then strip the copy protection or use VGA.

>he
did you just assume my gender?

Have fun unsing VGA for the rest of your life faggot

There is nothing wrong with VGA.

EPIC MAGAPEDE

Display Port, nigga

It has HDCP too bro

Try hooking up a 4k 120Hz panel over VGA

>HDCP
You mean that shit that was cracked in 2010?

>HDCP
Sick fucks.

>2017
>not having a 144hz monitor
>not using dual-link DVI

No

hdmi isnt just a cable. its a connector and electrical signaling

so yes, hdmi is a botnet

nope

Wow I know people hate Windows because of tin foil stuff but a cable..

>Just like DVI and HDMI, DisplayPort supports HDCP content protection.

Literally from displayports FAQ

is risotto a botnet?

What about Miracast?

>avoiding botnet means using nothing but analogue connectors and 15 year old CPUs

I've had enough of this fucking timeline.

"botnet" is Sup Forums slang for "thing I currently don't like"

not the same. display port and dvi may support it, but hdmi requires it

hdmi also requires royalties to even use hdmi on a device

lol

>He doesn't use S-Video

>2018-0.16
>not drawing his display by hand
wew lads

>Fell for the 4k meme

I don't use snake oil displays

Gold tipped HDMI cables allow for better connectivity and encryption.

This shit is cracked.
Everything is cracked eventually.
And when it's cracked, the pirate product becomes better than the original product.

In this case, you can't play original content on certain displays, but you can play the pirate one, making it a better product overall.

>using DVI in 2017 instead of Displayport
What?

>poorfag trying to justify less pixels

>being poverty stricken = libre
>the richer you are, the more eyes you have on you

>not using the QNIX2710 DVI only monitor

This, I have a $15 chinese splitter that strips the HDCP from the signal, for when I want to record TV

It's not that big a deal to get around

>fighting unfree software

stop consuming unfree media. fuck HDCP, fuck it by ignoring it.

user he probably just doesn't have the required TV license in his native british state
