The W3C's official vision statement also "recognizes that trust is a social phenomenon, but technology design can foster trust and confidence" and asserts that the W3C's mission includes "building trust on a global scale." A specification designed to help companies run secret code on users' computers to restrict what they do on the Web would severely undermine that trust. The only trust being built here is between media companies calling for DRM and their powerful allies promoting EME in the W3C.
