Comment on Ask HN: Is DRM on firefox another nail in the coffin of free internet?parent

Then I just stop visiting the sites that use it, while everyone else will just continue to do so while bitching about not liking it.

It's really simple: You either use sites with DRM and thereby accept it, or you don't. There's no point in crying about how browsers shouldn't even give you the choice.

Can I really stop visiting sites that use javascript? All of them use it. Can I really stop visiting websites that load facebook? Google trackers? Sure I can. And then I can cancel my internet service too.

If anyone applies DRM on html, you can't even use ad blockers anymore.
