[Fsuk-manchester] DRM and the W3C

[X]

Hi,

Following yesterday's meeting, here are the links to Tim Berners-Lee's position statement on EME, this is apparently now W3C policy by dictat

https://www.w3.org/blog/2017/02/on-eme-in-html5/

and the subsequent post by Cory Doctorow for the Electronic Frontiers Foundation

https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2017/03/whats-w3c-further-reading-reply-all-listeners

As Doctorow says in his post, "It's a first for the W3C: a standard that's designed to stop people from improving the web in lawful ways".

All the best,

John
