It can be used to make things worse, and it can be used to make things better. But they way it can be used to make things better:

  1. Requires a cooperation from companies.
  2. Is against the interest of said companies.

You are trying to argue that the very same companies that nowadays do all sort of convoluted things to take control and ownership away from their customers are going to use the blockchain to give control and ownership to their customers. I say it is much more likely they'll use it for MTX gacha.

Also - blockchain based DRM is so easy to bypass. Just make a public wallet which only contains the key NFTs and share that wallet's credentials around.

Your conversation style is chaotic. Each comment you bring up some new argument and never acknowledge the counter points I'm making on your previous arguments. Everything you're bringing up is worth discussing but if you can't bring it all up at once or focus on one then there's no way for this to be a constructive conversation.

  • You claimed that decentralized DRM will be good.
  • I explained why it won't happen.
  • Your counter point was that I originally claimed that the technology would catch but makes things worse and now that you explained that it would make things better I suddenly "changed" my argument to claim that the technology will not catch.
  • I did address that counter point, saying "It can be used to make things worse, and it can be used to make things better".
  • The "some new argument" I brought up is also a response to the DRM topic you brought up.
