I'm unclear on your thinking here, the stream is encrypted before it leaves
the computer, if you aren't going to decrypt it in a dongle and if the
monitor doesn't support copy protection (it's not going to decrypt it
either) then what good is a dongle that makes the computer think it's a
monitor with copy protection?
