🔐 Security Notes

This release includes comprehensive security features suitable for premium content delivery:

• Protects against screenshot/screen recording piracy
• Blocks playback on emulators to prevent automated content extraction
• Provides real-time security violation callbacks for monitoring
• Follows industry best practices for DRM content protection

Important: While these security measures significantly improve content protection, no security is absolute. For maximum protection, combine with server-side controls, watermarking, and legal DRM agreements.
