That's why I added it as an addendum. Even sourcing HDMI cables without HDCP is getting very very rare.

TBF, I will say I've never been hit by HDCP. I'm not sure I'd recognize it. Then again, I don't try to copy video from over a display cable; it just seems like adding an unnecessary middleman. But I oppose it in principle.

Edit: "born" -> "hit". WTF

HDCP and media production are often at odds with each other. It is broad overreach of content protection. It is super frustrating.
