The Danish word "effektiv" I believe carries the meaning "not amateurishly put together" so it might be more of a grey zone leaning into illegal still. Some might after all still call a vaccine effective if it "only" prevents 95% of infections against a certain virus and has a 2% risk of certain moderate side effects.
But interesting tid bit as it's also relevant in a Danish context. I didn't know about it.
Law regarding fees on drives and the like: https://www.copydan-kulturplus.dk/presse/pressemeddelser/lovaendring-om-kompensation-for-privatkopiering-er-vedtaget-nye-medier-er-omfattet
The law regarding circumvention of copyright measures is part of the copyright law, more specifically §75c stk. 1 & stk. 4:
§75 c - It is not permitted to circumvent effective technological measures without the consent of the rightholder.
[...]
(4). Effective technological measures in subsections (1) and (2) shall mean any kind of effective technological measures which, in the normal course of their operation, are intended to protect works and other subject matter, etc. protected under this Act.
Stk. 2 also creates some draconian rules that basically prohibits you from creating tools that help others circumvent copyright protection.
In Denmark it is lawful copies of a media. Problem is that almost all media is copyright protected and it is illegal to circumvent that. So essentially it is a free tax for the organization that represents the artists without any checks and balances to make sure those money actually get distributed to the artists afterwards.
As the famous words go; standards are good, double standards are double as good.
What you are essentially doing is that you are publicly lecturing people on public lecturing. The very same thing you despise, you're doing yourself.
The cause is lost the very same second that you cross your own line.
Why don't you stop doing the exact same thing you want others to stop doing?
But it is "added" to the video! /s
dba.dk is a pretty popular site for buying used stuff in Denmark, but for electronics I usually go on eBay and sort by EU only (IIRC they removed that option so now the results are tainted with lots of UK gear that'll be hit with import taxes).
As a software developer a website is not an app and a web app is not an app. A web app is a hybrid solution and calling it just an app is pure confusion for the end users. Always refer to your web app as a website for end users unless you want them to literally install an application.
The equivalent would be that you pay a million for a Lambo which is just an indefinite license they can revoke at any time. Renting isn't comparable at all.
There is though reasons to stray from certain consumer products for server equipment.
Fun fact, Finland and Sweden were also third world countries under this definition.
