I am not giving this information in capacity as a legal professional.Īndrew, remember the part where I stated that many United States Government laws are in contradiction? The United States Constitution is (supposed to be) considered the supreme tier of the law. Software that nullifies or works around DRM threatens to reduce the profitability of the DRM scheme. (Similar to how some businesses provide whatever good or service primarily for the ad revenue rather than that specifically for the good or service) The business of DRM might yield higher return than the actual content or thing that the DRM is applied to wherefore, the effectiveness of the DRM in preventing copying may be considered as secondary and a bonus. There is quite a lot of profit to be reaped in the licensing of the DRM and its related complements.
In United States, it is not truly the law which determines what United States finds permissible.ĭRM is interesting in that it itself is a profitable business. This is very apparent with regards to the enforcement of the legal concept of copyright which is supposed to be illegal in United States its implementation is of a legal tier inferior to a tier where its creation is prohibited. The United States Government, however, tends to disregard and not respect the hierarchy. There is a tiered hierarchy of those laws such that laws of inferior tier should not be preferred to the superior tier.
The United States Government has many laws, many of which are in contradiction.
In some countries at the very least, you are allowed to make personal backups from DVD and Blu-Ray movies that you have purchased. Disclaimer: Please note that circumventing copy protection may be illegal in your region or country.
