    A spokesperson for Google told Business Insider that Cognizant is responsible for ending the workers’ employment, not Google.

    “Contracts with our suppliers across the company routinely end on their natural expiry date, which was agreed to with Cognizant,” the company said in a statement.

    Not sure how much of the fault is from Google’s side here since the employees contracted from another company.






  • HDMI isn’t necessary for HDCP though. HDCP also works over DisplayPort and even DVI.

    Edit: The HDMI article on Wikipedia that you linked even says:

    The HDMI founders began development on HDMI 1.0 on April 16, 2002, with the goal of creating an AV connector that was backward-compatible with DVI. At the time, DVI-HDCP (DVI with HDCP) and DVI-HDTV (DVI-HDCP using the CEA-861-B video standard) were being used on HDTVs. HDMI 1.0 was designed to improve on DVI-HDTV by using a smaller connector and adding audio capability and enhanced Y′CBCR capability and consumer electronics control functions.
