I agree that it's "only" a step in that direction, but this can snowball and get ugly pretty fast.
- tdy721 9y agoI feel you've brought the Browsers (Software, layer 5+) to an ISP fight (Layer 1-4). One that the 99% lost a long time ago. This has been snowballing for a very long time, I feel that momentum is minimal. This snowball is being pushed by pure force. Power! Unlimited Power! -Darth Sidious
- saganus 9y agoYeah, maybe. But I think it's still a possibility. Never underestimate companies that want to "innovate". I mean, standardizing a DRM API on browsers is probably going to bring us a lot of new "tools" which people will try to use for a lot of different things, and I can very easily imagine they will explore the possibility of paywalls and such. Not saying you are wrong, just saying that sometimes layers don't seem to be as separate as we engineers would like them to be.
