The charter for #DRM work within the W3C ends on Friday. Work can only continue with explicit approval from Tim Berners-Lee.

W3C's #TPAC2016 meeting began today in Lisbon. They're are discussing #DRM in Web standards, among many other projects.

Looks like protests against #DRM at #W3C meetings are becoming a regular thing. First ours in March, now ANSOL and AEL's in Portugal:https://u.fsf.org/1wg

drm does not fit into anything claiming to be about standards

trying to force a square peg into a round hole could break the whole standards process.

The folks promoting DRM aren't playing games. Over the years I've read too many news articles where individuals have been arrested and sent to jail for DRM related offenses.

25 years ago Saturday, Tim Berners-Lee published the first Web page. Now he's considering some reverse innovation: #DRM in Web standards. https://u.fsf.org/1u-

I doubt Tim Berners-Lee is too bothered what you and I think when it comes to DRM. Besides if he goes upsetting his peers who are proponents of DRM then he may lose credibility, quite a few friends, and funding or opportunities for future projects.
I don't want DRM and neither should Tim Beners-Lee, if he can't deal with it maybe we should be looking for new W3C leadership.

Hear, hear. New leadership if they can't stand up to Big Media.

Yet another formal objection to proposed #DRM in Web standards: https://u.fsf.org/1va. The Web we want does not include DRM!

Yesterday, the #W3C granted Candidate status to their universal #DRM system for the Web (#EME). We will not give up our fight to stop it.
