### Stepping it up as W3C takes the next step towards the Hollyweb

*From May 9th*

On May 3rd, we made a powerful statement to the W3C by delivering the
verified signatures of over 22,500 people against Encrypted Media
Extensions (EME), Big Media's proposal to incorporate DRM support into
HTML. Today the W3C advanced EME one step further in their approval
process, to "first public working draft." This doesn't mean we've
lost, but it shows that the media and software companies behind EME
are not giving up, and that we need to keep pushing. Here's Defective
by Design's blog post:
