I did use "supposedly" in there. While media lobbies are strong, that's not how they are convincing governments to line up: it's about protecting the naive, non-techy user in this tech-heavy world.

To me, that's why we need to rise and say: I need no protection! Media companies can do what they please and still insist on "secure attestation" (like Netflix does with Chrome on Linux, still limiting to lower quality streams), without essential services like government services, banking services, communication services etc. being allowed to do the same if the user decides against that "protection".
