Appears to be just a mailing list
I'm guessing it's just a mailing list for newsletters and their marketing dept.
They created a new section on their forum for it Silicondust - Forgelink Forums
It appears to be a new product that S.D is going to offer.
"Cards encoded with security features for identification purposes; Network cards; Security token hardware; Computer network switches; Computer hardware, namely, wireless access point (WAP) devices; LAN (local area network) access points for connecting network computer users"
It will be posted in the Channels community within minutes of the email going out. I have zero interest in being added to an SD mailing list.
Who cares about mailing list? U can always unsubscribe.
Or just use a junk email address for such things, what i have been doing for decades for random forms, promos, online accounts on sites i only ever use once, or not care about etc...
Though their sign up form, asking for mailing address.... as if they intend to send you a product to test maybe? or just send some random thing... who knows.
But it don't bother me at all, since, S.D. already has my email and address, from support requests and RMA's i have done.
You know, for DRM...

@maddox Are you trying to tell us something by moving my post from General to Hardware?
Do you know what it is?
I just assume it’s hardware. Right?
My current theory. This will be new hardware that meet drm requirements.
Guess again

Forgelink is a new type of product for us, not TV related.
