How to remove Widevine DRM protection (It prevents Screen & Stream Recording)

[any ANONYMOUS forum user]

Although Widevine is cross-platform, it limits the devices you can use to watch content protected with Widevine DRM (it doesn't even support Linux OS, Android, Meego). The major problem is that it monitors in the background whether screen recorders are used or not.

Widevine's Digital Copy Protection adds an additional level of protection against the hundreds of software tools available on the internet that record content and enable piracy. Known as stream recorders and screen scrapers, these tools copy content while it’s in the clear—typically after traditional DRM systems have done their job. Digital Copy Protection monitors, detects and protects content on any internet connected device, preventing this method of piracy from occurring.

This addition level of protection is a necessary requirement for preserving the revenue streams of content owners, Internet digital media providers and payTV operators.

Here's How It Works:
Widevine Digital Copy Protection - Preventing Screen & Stream Recording PiracyContent is encrypted, stored and distributed to the user who then watches it in a browser or video player. During playback, encrypted content has been decrypted and the video is now vulnerable to piracy simply by downloading a free software tools such as screen scrapers and stream recorders which can pirate the video stream to a DRM-free file.

In the background, Widevine’s digital copy protection solution monitors for the acceptable usage of content. If a user attempts to use a screen scraper or other piracy method, Digital Copy Protection will detect this and produce a number of customizable responses from silent monitoring to revocation of viewing rights.

Is it possible to disable Widevine monitor and re-record DRM protected content?

p.s. Do not buy DRM protected content to avoid any problems. Use services that offer DRM free content!
