The inline box has to negotiate authentication with the player, which will see that the inline box has a revoked key and refuse to send data to it.


Thanks. This is the part that I was missing. So the Netflix/Prime/Hulu app receives the updated listed of revoked keys. When it sees that the device it is communicating with has a revoked key, it will refuse to play/launch/however it fails. At that point, it could even be put on Apple's shoulders that the AppleTV unit shouldn't even connect to that device and not be the app developers???
