DMCA Section 1201 criminalizes breaking any “technological protection measures” of any kind, unless there is an exception for it on a list decided by a librarian that changes every 3 years. It’s absurd.

I guess my question is more specifically why something like Widevine falls under this, but commonly used anti-adblocking scripts (that are still regularly blocked by ad-blockers) don't. Are anti-adblockers on that exception list you refer to?
