I have no idea why so many people seem to believe Irdeto is a big company...
For perspective, Irdeto's parent company is a South African broadcasting firm currently under investigation and threat of having their assets frozen for $6.6bn of unpaid fiscal dues over the past decade - more than their annual revenue this year. Stocks have been taking a sharp nosedive, of course. This is not helped by the fact they've been under the sights of the International Court of Justice for the broadcast of violent conversion therapies, hate speech and breach of human rights. Ironically they also have been sued repeatedly for multiple copyright infringements . Denuvo suddenly closing is completely in the realm of possibilities.
Furthermore, despite their boast of being a world leader in digital security Irdeto itself does not seem to be a leader of anything. They don't appear in any software analyst's publications for the 20, 30 or even 150 best cybersecurity firms... they're not even a footnote in lists limited to their home country, the Netherlands. All the awards featured on their product pages are phony vanity awards received in exchange for a 800$ fee... you can even create your own custom category to compete all by yourself for a 1800$ "sponsor" fee. Their main revenue appears to come from designing tv decoder boxes exclusively for the African Market.
So there you go, violence, homophobia, hate speech, scams and fraud. Irdeto? A mere grease stain floating in a sea of manure.
I looked into your claims a little bit because I'm one of those people who doesn't believe everything anybody says in the internet.
So the claim here is that Emmanuel TV (some christian television network), that broadcasts on DSTV, is homophobic or whatever. While I can't find any other evidence of this, I'll just assume this is true.
The link between Emmanual TV and Irdeto appears to be that Irdeto is owned by MultiChoice (although other sources claim it's owned by Naspers), and that MultiChoice also ownes DSTV, which broadcasts Emmanual TV.
So they're not directly linked and it seems that Irdeto has basically nothing to do with Emmanual TV other than that some grandparent company owns both.
All this sounds like conspiricy thinking to me. I'm not even going to further investigate any of the other claims, as I value my time too much.
