"Want" is a tricky word here because you're conflating the micro and macro wants of people. On a micro level, surveys show most people are extremely anti-free speech. Individuals are broadly onboard with the extreme and and anti-constitutional suppression of speech that runs counter to their political / religious beliefs. And yet on a macro level, we tend to recognize in how we build our institutions that we strive toward a society that doesn't suppress speech. Same with DRM. Just because everyone might say "Uh, fine, just start playing Moana already" doesn't mean we collectively would prefer the macro results of ubiquitous DRM.
