      no. According to the wiki, It was just used for fearmongering as dissuade pirates.

          It was used in only one VHS tape called Cat Sitter. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dEDxj-0Hbao

                jokes aside, this would make a mildly interesting SCP. like a cognitohazard but for any kind of electronic recording device

                actually it could be useful for preventing electronic spread of other replicable infohazards. by playing the uncopyable tape(s) on a loop in proximity to the infohazard such that any potential recorder would also capture the uncopyable tape(s), transmission would be prevented as the recorder would simply be destroyed

            I really surprised I didn’t get rickrolled.

        Yeah. Playing and recording uses the same mechanism in a VCR. Writing uses a different method but it would be on the second tape. Unless you tried to record over the tape which I don’t think works on non-recordable anyways.

          We’re you worried you may damage your new VHS tapes by copying them with your vcr?

    These things actually work. I once tried to copy a KTC protected VHS and it ended up breaking my cd drive beyond repair

    Isn’t this easily bypassable by adding a recording device between the vcr and the display
