Unfortunately that’s not what they mean by “effective.” They define it like this:

a technological measure "effectively controls access to a work" if the measure, in the ordinary course of its operation, requires the application of information, or a process or a treatment, with the authority of the copyright owner, to gain access to the work.

The key verbiage there is “in the ordinary course of its operation.”

Someone should tell these people that words have meanings.
