How safe is it to rip Blu-rays for seeding? Edit: clarification. I mean the invisible kind of watermark used as a unique identifier of the disc and associated file.

I should have clarified my post. You can add invisible watermarks to a bitstream to track the file back to the disc. Basically like an unique identifier. If you were to share that ripped Blu-ray illegally, the law enforcement could proof that you (as the buyer of the disc) ripped it. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] FatAdama@programming.dev 4 points 2 years ago Maybe for screeners where the volume is low.
