they’ll make smaller shittier batteries that die more quickly so that they can charge more to replace them and put proprietary control chips inside them so either third party manufacturers of better batteries will have to “violate copyright” in order to make them work or YOU’LL be required to “violate copyright” to make them work, thus locking most people without the technical skills to circumvent the ‘security’ into only buying the shitty ‘official’ batteries until MORE regulation comes along to make them cut that shit out. In the mean time they’ll be blaming the regulations for the shittiness they adopted.
Well, that’s the thing, they encode the data of the security chip such that it’s a type of “media” whose “content” unlocks the functionality and copying the written media content is how they legally frame it as a tortuously stretched “violation of copyright”

Patent is the word you’re looking for
Copyright is for words, videos, audios
Patent is for technology
Things get a little nebulous when you’re talking about microcode running on a proprietary IC.
