Have a look for yourself. Also TIL that CDP literally started up by enticing gamers away from pirated games with extra fucking treats in the "legitimate" copies, and making a ton of money off it. Modern AAA publishers must have taken notes from them lmao

    As others have mentioned there were various anti-copying tricks back in the '80s. But none of this was really "DRM" as we might think of it today, and the phrase wasn't really used until things like DVDs in the late 1990s/early 2000s and the DMCA in the US which made DRM stripping illegal for Americans - and nobody else. To say that Communist-era Poland was rampant with DRM stripping of media is not only a bit strange and anachronistic, but it's also still not a crime in Poland today, or anywhere else outside of the USA. If you live outside of the US you can strip all the DRM you like, so long as you don't widely share or sell those liberated DVD movies afterwards.
