Thanks for the new malware Google, Apple, Microsoft, and Netflix! </3
What kind of standard is this, DRM that likely won't be supported by any other browser or even
alternative operating systems is now a " New Victory for an Open Internet! :dance: ".
This is infuriating, what if you cannot run one of the big 5 ( Chrome, Safari, I.E. , Edge, and Firefox )? So you just
give up on Youtube or Netflix, what about every other streaming service out there? Is it fair to be forced to migrate to
another browser, let alone another Operating environment just because of the DRM requirements that don't allow
you to watch a bare basic Youtube video?
This issue touches me at the core because I have a game ( The Sims 1 ) in my collection that I can't run because of DRM incompatibilities. Is it fair to dump Windows 10 for something earlier just for 1 game that can't do a simple CD check?
This new "standard" just makes everything inconvenient and more so than not, another huge pain in the ass to
deal with.
When people like me come home from slow day of whatever, I want to come home to watch some videos or listen to music. Not be bombarded with DRM nonsense, and incompatibility errors.

Laughable, sounds like another Brexit vote.
