    • HDCP had flaws and keys up to version 2.1 were extracted/reversed. In addition to that there is hdfury device that legally and following HDCP licencing terms downgraded 2.2 to lower 2.x versions to provide compatibility. They got smarter and blocked downgrading in later versions. Blocking HDCP older than that would also break compatibility with devices that don’t support versions of the standard newer than late 2012. Add a capture card and you are set.
    • Widevine L1 keys were extracted from a Qualcomm CPU in 2021. They are also stored in Intel CPUs in SGX which had so many flaws over the years I’d be surprised nobody grabbed keys at some point
    • Both audio and video has to be decrypted and analog at some point - you can capture it if you have the hardware and willingness to e.g. grab it at a LCD display ribbon. Not as good/convenient as decrypting it, but it is an option.





  • It’s a balancing factor that is supposed to make escaping to a secure location feasible. If zombies maintained full speed we’d basically have a force that is dumber humans with the ability to exponentially force-recruit and not caring about personal safety. This would be a very short struggle for everyone not physically separated from them at the start. It would be normies vs a growing crowd off their rocker on pcp.

    On the other hand if you want to introduce any degree of realism:

    1. if it’s a disease a vast majority of infected will be dead within a week. Fill your bathtub with water and barricade the door - it’s going to be pretty much over by the time you really have to leave.
    2. If it’s supernatural bs but decomposition still applies see above - you’ll be down to facing skeletons
    3. In both cases extreme climate is your friend if it doesn’t affect you
