      Yeah obviously I mean I know it couldn’t work, but I’ve never even heard of this as a copy protection method. What was it used on? Like Hollywood?

              jokes aside, this would make a mildly interesting SCP. like a cognitohazard but for any kind of electronic recording device

              actually it could be useful for preventing electronic spread of other replicable infohazards. by playing the uncopyable tape(s) on a loop in proximity to the infohazard such that any potential recorder would also capture the uncopyable tape(s), transmission would be prevented as the recorder would simply be destroyed

        We’re you worried you may damage your new VHS tapes by copying them with your vcr?
