This is as much of an "open spec" as EME - if you don't have the keys Google uses you can't implement it in a meaningful way.



EME is a great example. It's been around for over a decade now. In what way has it negatively impacted users? Is piracy any harder than it was? EME has been built into Chrome since long before it was an official W3C spec, which it has been for six years now. People lost their minds when EME was getting standardized, yet here we are. This same nonsense is playing out with WEI, yet people haven't seemed to learn a thing.
