Where is the expiration date stored?

I do not like the idea that makemkv writes data without being asked to a location of my my computer that i do not know. I hope the information is contained in the precompiled binary or added to the libs when compiling. i haven't used strace, lsof, netstat,gdb, valgrind ... balblabla ... on it yet ... and actually i do not want to waste my time on it so if anybody knows how this is working please let me know.
probably i have to wait for libaacs

Well, because MakeMKV is not a freeware application. While some parts are open source, the whole thing is not. If your only concern is about writing to random locations then you might as well buy a registration key (or use current free beta key) to stop evaluation management code from running. If your question is why MakeMKV is not free or open-source then well, you'll have to stick with libaacs.
