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.

Seamonkey (Mozilla browser/email/news suite) still exists! https://www.seamonkey-project.org/dev/

And there's even still a build of uBlock Origin for it! https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/

There is still hope, if we keep the open tools alive...

Posted from freshly-installed Seamonkey browser with uBlock Origin :)
