On the hardware you build yourself? I don't think so.

The OS and the hardware become irrelevant when you run your apps behind DRM.

At least one thing we can thank the copyright trolls for.



I bought an AMD mini-PC. It came with windows 11, but I just yanked that NVMe drive out, and installed Linux on it. Linux support for such devices is excellent because they're basically down to just one SoC package that's been tested by AMD. This one also has an Intel Wifi/Bluetooth chip, which is exactly as flaky as any other Intel product would be with any other OS.

Anyway, there are options to disable TPM in the BIOS if you care, but I don't think any of the DRM stuff works by default.


I’m very confused. You know what DRM is right? I’m not trying to insult you, but I feel like we’re working with different definitions or something.
