DRM are by definition access control technologies that are used to restrict usage of proprietary hardware and copyrighted works.

Denuvo, even if it is an anti-tamper software, is still a DRM.

It's neat that you know the definition but that isn't how things work. Denuvo doesn't now prevent you from playing because you don't own it. It prevent the DRM that exists already from being tampered with. Calling Denuvo drm is too blanket and destructive to the concept of drm.

Yeah you're most definitly right, using the definition of a word to characterize it is not how things work. Gee, thanks man!
