My patience is over, legal action to go

I understand that. The problem starts a bit further though: either Apple or Synaptics tell the (Netflix/Disney/HBO) player I'm "recording the screen" – which is not true. I am not recording my screen. I've just attached an external display using DisplayLink driver. And this configuration is set up wrong way, so that a third party software get the (wrong!) information I'm recording the screen. That's the core of the problem. Either Synaptics or Apple lie about my configuration, pretend that I'm recording something even it's not true. This is what's it all about.

btw, you know what the fun part is? If I actually record the screen, i.e. using the system screen recording in MacOS, it works. Nothing is blocking the playback and I can record the stream/screen freely.
