It's a video about the exact case in question, talks extensively about the decryption aspect and in general the circumvention of technological protection measures.

Watch it, don't watch it, it doesn't matter to anyone here, but please lower that horse back down to earth, it's a little high.

As if your talking about yourself, maybe your a bit young but we had the exact same problem in the past (decrypting DVD's) those are Disc who stored Movies on it. And a Swiss Court decided that it's legal to use dvcss (not sure about the name).

And you tell me to watch a YT from a US Lawyer.

If you'd bother watching the video you'd note that he specifically talks about the CSS DRM, and even the AACS encryption key.

So yeah, tone it down a bit.
