"HDCP not guarantee that the participating devices are licensed, unlicensed devices because the manufacturer can use a keygen to create public and private key pairs correct," he wrote in a blog post.

After nearly a decade, Danish cryptographer Niels Ferguson claimed to have found a way to avoid HDCP.

"If this master key is ever published, HDCP will provide no protection. Flaws in HDCP are not hard to find."
At that time, Ferguson said he has no intention to publish discoveries made because of fear of starting legal action against him.
