Basically by allowing websites to refuse to load unless the browser the operating system running the browser promises that the user isn’t allowed to know what the computer is doing. And Google super duper promises this won’t be used for evil.
YouTube doesn’t have invasive DRM (on normal videos), playing any resolution works on Linux.
Netflix only ever plays in 720p for me however, regardless of browser (you can check the stats with crtl + alt + shift + d). There are extensions for Firefox and Chrome to fix this issue luckily.
But if Google’s DRM for the web goes through this might not be so easy anymore.
They’re adding DRM? In what way?

I’ve never had this happen on YouTube or any other video streaming website.

O wow, glad I never paid for any of those then
Yeah, I’m sure they fucking do lol Glad I use a combination of it, Firefox, and Opera GX now to diversify
Everything not Firefox or Safari is Chromium based.
