Google is starting to use DRM on all it’s videos so that only the official youtube clients on devices and big browser brands can play them. It also kills all the systems like invidious.

If Firefox continues to work, does that mean that it can be used as a workaround, potentially? I guess it depends on how the DRM works, if something like running it in a Firefox tab would work.

And surely blocking Firefox would be a bad move for Google since that would clearly be using monopolistic power in one market to gain advantage in another, right?
