Why Collabora really added Digital Restrictions Management to Weston

Drew DeVault argues that Collabora added HDCP (a DRM-related technology) to Weston, the Wayland reference compositor, purely for financial reasons. He contends that DRM is technically ineffective, harmful to user freedoms, and that free software maintainers have an ethical obligation to refuse implementing such systems. He criticizes Collabora for gaslighting the community with justifications, draws parallels to Mozilla's capitulation on DRM in Firefox, and calls on engineers to use their organizational power to say no to unethical code. He urges Weston and Collabora to revert the changes.
