How is Message Security Layer HDCP-for-sockets? I saw nothing in the article that seemed outrageous. The only thing it looks like you could be objecting to is the fact that they want to use device cryptography if available, which makes sense.
Of course, the DRM premise is flawed and these things don't need protecting like they talk about. It's great business for Netflix to pretend so, to ensure competitors have a harder time.

Device keys are hardware/OS-level DRM
