I'm no MS fanboy, but don't you think Content Platforms like Netflix or Steam might be applying DRM pressure to Microsoft? And perhaps IP owners also apply pressure to the Content Providers to lock down their platforms, which may include hardware that has access to protected IP
- thewebguyd 1y agoI'd say content platforms absolutely are applying pressure on MS (And Google, and Apple as well). I'd be willing to bet governments are as well, and I'd also be willing to bet that Google's upcoming sideloading/developer ID changes on Android are also from government pressure.
- amlib 1y agoValve/Steam is definitely not applying any pressure, they've always been against strong DRM. Even the steam deck lacks any hardware locks or fancy DRM.
