Is this HDCP gizmo a fix to mess us up in any way?

From http://tv.about.com/od/hdtv/a/hdmidvihdcp.htm

"Buy a HDTV that is HDCP compliant or else be prepared to shake hands with the devil whenever you use HDMI or DVI cables.

The reason I refer to HDCP as the devil is because HDCP is quite possibly one of the worst TV technologies because it stands at the alter of controlling the way we watch digital programming. While the intent of HDCP is noble -- to protect copyrighted material -- the disruption it causes law-abiding TV watchers is far too significant to ignore."

What experience or opinions do any of you have with HDCP? Thanks, M8
