DRM that Google controls
2 comments

You're free to open a website that directly stream some mpeg ts without encryption, Google is not to blame, the people that actually want that are the publisher. Youtube does not use DRM fyi.
Parts of youtube use widevine (I think mainly for movie / TV rentals and the like)
Netflix issues several types of DRM license, not just Widevine, Google's marketshare here is fairly modest.
