I'm used to dealing with DRM, too. If it can be stripped out of a game or other software, it could be stripped out of the internet itself.

You can be sure as hell they will. If greater the force, the greater the resistance.

It’s interesting to think about from a technological point of view, and there could be multiple ingress points to combat it.

The proposal doesn’t have a complete implementation, but it in essence they want websites to ask browsers for a key if sorts (attestation). In theory this flow would be a lot like hoe notifications work. Keeping that in mind, when the website asks the browser, what’s stopping us from making our own attestation server?
