The HDMI Forum, responsible for the HDMI specification, continues to stonewall open source. Valve’s Steam Machine theoretically supports HDMI 2.1, but the mini-PC is software-limited to HDMI 2.0. As a result, more than 60 frames per second at 4K resolution are only possible with limitations.
Wouldn’t make it legal to use them anyway and a big company like steam couldn’t get away with it.
It would still be great for the open source community working on personal projects and such
I bet we would start to see chinese adapters showing up on the market with DisplayPort to HDMI2.1 though.

You can/should write your congressman (or equivalent in your country). Just the threat that if OSS can’t use HDMI congress will open up the laws will get action. In a democracy voters have more power than big money when they care and vote like it.
That’s cute.
Hahaahahhaaa omg, you’re adorable.
Could work in the EU.
