Your choice of browser matters — Google’s Web DRM and the open internet

https://grafcube.codeberg.page/blog/2023/08/06/web-drm-api.html

I wrote this blog post to inform the people I know who aren’t as tech savvy or otherwise don’t put any thought into their choice of browser. Another goal is to help get enough awareness on the topic and make sure it fails.

The opposite is true. A friend tells me some site is not working for them and they’re using Chrome. I open it on Firefox and yup, works fine.

Of course, it’s way more serious when the site doesn’t work on FF.
