Digital Rights Management (DRM) refers to technologies and strategies used to protect digital content from unauthorized use and distribution. It helps content creators, such as musicians, authors, and software developers, control how their work is accessed and shared. By implementing DRM, they can prevent piracy and ensure that they receive fair compensation for their creations. DRM can take various forms, including encryption, licensing agreements, and access controls. For example, streaming services like Spotify and Netflix use DRM to restrict the copying and sharing of their media. While DRM aims to protect intellectual property, it can also limit user freedoms, leading to debates about its effectiveness and fairness.
