Also, the DRM baked into the specification is such bullshit.
That’s the one thing they have absolutely no interest in getting rid of. They’ll change everything about the spec, including the connector, but that part’s staying in.
TBF, I will say I’ve never been born 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.

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

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