First of all, how in the world did we end up down the rabbit hole of the EME holy war? The EME comment was a tiny reference that ultimately had nothing to do with the point of the blog post... You can do whatever you'd like with your wallet, but you live in a very different reality from most people. There's a reason why GOG can offer "Minecraft: The Story of Mojang" without DRM. Again, this conversation has nothing to do with the actual blog post in question other than rabbling about something you disagree with. I disagree with you that EME is Satan's binary blob, but this is entirely irrelevant.

I'm not really criticizing the rest of the post. Just the EME part of it. And yes, that's my personal choice since I oppose DRM on many grounds (it's unethical, impractical, slows down the progress of technology and so on). And if we as users don't vote with our wallets, how else do you think this can be improved? Whether it's different reality or not, each one has personal responsibility for supporting or not supporting services which proliferate DRM. In gaming sense GOG already broke quite a number of walls even with publishers who were usually viewed as thick skulled DRM proponents. Film industry however is one of the worst when it comes to this (it's older than the gaming industry in general so more legacy garbage and practices are attached).
