You mean like every other device in the world? Should Mazda be forcing me to buy a Mazda OEM or OEM-approved car battery through DRM? It would prevent theft of my car to steal its parts, but it would also have the curiously beneficial side effect of massive profit.

You mean like how California bans installation of used catalytic converters? And how that law was passed explicitly to cut down on converter theft?

You will never guess what California requires to be inscribed on every converter sold in the state.
