I've never run into one of these and am curious, do you have an example of a library that tries to do this with obfuscation?

What's the state of the art in JavaScript DRM?

I think you're confusing JS minification with obfuscation. Minified code looks obfuscated, sure, but it's not done to deter "hacking", just to make the code smaller.

The code in the challenge isn't even minified, it's just really minimally obfuscated. So, no confusion here.

I'm not talking about the challenge, but those supposed commercial JS libraries with DRM that you're advising "should take notice".

There are no mainstream examples of such libraries. You're likely confusing minified libraries for having an intent to obfuscate, or talking out your ass.

One or the other.

Yeah? Go take a look at GoJS. Then sulk off to whatever fetid corner of the internet you came from.
