One of the great things about the web and it's user interface is that I can edit it on the fly. I can change the css, I can download an adblock plugin, I can selectively change pretty much any aspect of it.
If those adds are served through EMR mixed in with content then I can no longer filter the adds from the content. I can no longer style the content the way I want either.
> A way to break the cycle and get rid of the plugins (which is a much worse issue than DRMed content IMHO) is to allow content publishers to use native browser features and a way to allow them to do that is to allow DRM.
What alternative solutions do you see? If there are no other solution what are the consequences user will face?
