I mean that on your own PC, that don't have a Trusted Environment
Execution, you can always install and use a browser that don't support EME
at all, and also on ChromeOS and ChromeBooks, that are somewhat closed
platforms as mobile phones and TVs with hardware-based DRM support and
where latest builds has EME integrated and enabled, it gets disabled and
you can by-pass it and access to EME protected files without any
restriction making it useless so easily as just entering on Developer Mode,
something that's available to everybody just setting a switch. Do you
really think it would be harder on your own PC, or it would means that all
of us have been wasting our time with this discussions?
