Probably DMCA. The Olympic committee is very jealous and very aggressive. They control all recordings strictly.

No I’m sorry this is strictly on NBC and American fragility. Streams of the Olympics in all other countries didn’t mess with audio. I heard Israel being booed as well as America.

They don’t control my tivo recordings.
Which is why everyone should oppose ATSC 3.0.
With ATSC 3.0, TV stations can literally insert ads overlayed on screen at any point.
They can use your tv’s smart functions to literally track your behavior.
They can refuse to allow you to record tv stations entirely, or just kndividual shows.
They can delete shows without your consent. They can block you from watching shows. They can make OTA tv programing pay per view.
I’m not saying they ARE doing this, or are planning it, but they CAN. And if capitalism has taught me anything it’s “fuck you, pay us, and then pay us again, and fuck you again”.
See…humans are stupid. We could all be living in lush rich forests, having sex in bright sunny fields, with no cares in the world.
Instead, we all have jobs, and make ourselves slaves to them. We hand over control of all aspects of our lives to corporations.
Instead of utopia, we live in a parking lot jungle. Where the profits for paid parking are more important than affordable housing, and rent control.
And it all rolls downhill. Even television is trying its hand at enshitification. Don’t buy a smart tv. Don’t buy ATSC 3.0 anything. Tell these fuckers to fuck off!

A protector is a good non-enshittified alternative to a smart TV

I always have my “smart” TV disconnected from internet, and I run my media viewing through the steam deck in desktop mode, but any Linux computer will work just as fine. Then I employ some high sea villainy and boom, set to coast.

I bought lifetime subscription 10+ years ago. It still updates the guide, but they stopped selling hardware.
Which is a shame. I like Tivo.

ianal but I’m pretty sure dmca wouldn’t apply to free use exceptions if needed reporting and commentary

Problem is that fair use doesn’t prevent a dmca takedown. It doesn’t really matter until you go to court and prove it, unfortunately. These takedowns are functioning exactly as designed, allowing for easy corporate censorship with minimal repercussions for abuse.
