The loss is that DRM is added to a product, which means that even if you legally purchased it, you don't really own it.

You never "really owned" a TV because they were never open source. If the feature never activates, it never affects the user in any way and it may as well not exist. If it does activate wrongly, you have consumer law and protections to get your money back.
