It's fundamentally impossible to grant read access without copy. And you can always do whatever you want to your copy.

Otherwise, piracy wouldn't be a thing.

Im skipping a few steps. Down then road when they have WEI or something like it, they will only show videos in a secure environment... i.e. where the entire hardware chain has key attestation it hasn't been modified. In that dark future, we can still do everything through optics.

I agree with you, if they send you data, no matter how its wrapped, its your data to do with as you wish.

I was trying to agree with you overall in my first comment. That no matter what they try to do, there will be a way around it. Even if it's as extreme as using a camera to make the copy.

Even then... I have a small USB stick that has a HDMI port and support HDCP. Which means it will capture any HDMI output unencrypted. It was like... 20 bucks on Ali Express. Since it counts as a valid HDCP sink, WEI can only attest that all components up to the "monitor" support copy protection. But it can't see or attest, that I can just capture the data unencrypted anyways.

At some point in the chain it has to be uncompressed, and even though they have teams at Google try to get that down to the last step, someone is always going to figure out how to step in between and grab that stream
