The following answers have been successfully submitted to 'Call for Review: Encrypted Media Extensions is W3C Proposed Recommendation' (Advisory Committee) for Electronic Frontier Foundation by Cory Doctorow. Regarding the "Encrypted Media Extensions" specification, the reviewer suggests changes, and only supports publication as a Recommendation if the changes are adopted [Formal Objection]. Additional comments about the specification: We believe that EME creates new risks for people engaged in legitimate activities vital to the open web, including security research, adaptation for people with disabilities, and new market entrants creating lawful, products and services that interoperate with web video. Accordingly, we do not support the advancement of EME without a binding covenant that requires W3C members to limit their anti-circumvention litigation to circumstances where some unlawful activity, such as copyright infringement, has taken place. Answers to this questionnaire can be set and changed at https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/33280/eme-pr-2017/ until 2017-04-13. Regards, The Automatic WBS Mailer
