WTF is up with the W3C, DRM and security bods threatened – we explain

Not sure I get what the big deal is...

How does just having a *standard* affect who can be sued one way or the other? The decision to standardize DRM is a totally different issue than whether or not DRM itself is beneficial. From a technical standpoint, standardization is a *good* thing; why require plugins for functionality that is used so widely?
