Is there real evidence for this? Does Paramount care about ad blocking?
I feel like the simple explanation (DRM is about piracy + a certain worldview about effectiveness about DRM) is a bit easier to believe than a conspiracy.
DRM is being used as a red herring so that movie studios can control web browsers? What?
- TheCowboy 10y agoParamount is a subsidiary of Viacom, which does care about ad blocking. Here's an interview where the CEO fields a question about the topic: http://www.businessinsider.com/viacom-bob-bakish-interview-2016-2 http://www.businessinsider.com/viacom-bob-bakish-interview-2... "Some of the traditional — dare I say — mediums like television remain very healthy and very attractive for advertisers because they're not subject to the whims of adblocking."
