> That doesn't mean the DRM works. You can find torrents of all those shows.
Causation does not mean correlation. The vast majority of content available via torrents did not come from breaking a streamer's DRM.

Or do you mean they read the source from hacking into a memory buffer after the player does decryption but before decoding, instead of doing the decryption themselves?
The DRM decryption isn’t the hard bit - it’s actually mostly a standard thing, and there are plenty of tools on GitHub that will decrypt it from you if you have a key, e.g. Devine.
The issue is mostly around getting a key, but those are easy enough to get if you know where to look (e.g. TV firmware dumps).
Once you have this though, and any piracy group will have this, it’s so much easier to do this than to screen record, and will give you the original quality as well.
