I worked on the team that implemented this, years ago! (around 2017-2018)

Upper management really enjoyed telling us (the engineers) that we needed to implement more DRM, and we liked complaining that it was dumb.

Fun to see someone reverse engineer what we implemented!

That's amazing! Well done, it was a fun challenge

I don't think its dumb from a business point of view. You've got to make promises to the editors that the platform is going to drive the sales up, not down.

Is it hostile to customers, absolutely.
