    I have tonight announced I will resign from #w3c if the W3C decides to recommend EME. DRM is not part of the web we want. @Joi @EFF @fsf

        Unfortunately, Mozilla buckled to pro-DRM pressure. You can use Chrome or Iceweasel though.

        Chromium WITHOUT DRM, not Chrome :( Of course, Google buckled to pro-DRM pressure.

        @harryhalpin No one has paid any attention to the Marrakesh Treat, an intl treaty for the print disabled, which restricts DRM @Joi @EFF @fsf

        @pranesh @Joi @EFF @fsf Yes, its true. DRM is unfair prevents access to clear-text for those who need accessibility.

        @harryhalpin @Joi @EFF @fsf Check out Article 7: http://www.wipo.int/wipolex/en/treaties/text.jsp?file_id=301016#art7 … That means that EME can't be allowed unless DRM contains backdoor.

        @harryhalpin I'm not sure I understand, must all content be free? Surely standardised browser support > buggy plugins.

        @nuclearpengy A non-invasive solution based on labelling would make more sense. The problem is DMCA

        @harryhalpin So is the general concept ok but the proposed technical implementation the issue? Any links you recommend I check out?

        Happy that you did Harry. I saw clearly the very week of this tweet it was all $ and that's part of why I walked off too. Integrity matters.
