I just learned about HDCP. What if you have display without HDCP support? This just sounds like a stupid idea.

Edit: Apparently laptops and computers should have that too. Is there any way I can test it on demand?

Edit 2: Intel just discontinued HDCP on Linux at start of this year.

That depends on the software in question, but generally it will play a degraded version of the content.
