Hollywood is at it again. Its latest ploy to take over the Web? Use its influence at the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) to weave
Digital Restrictions Management (DRM)
into HTML5 — in other words, into the very fabric of the Web. Millions of Internet users came together to defeat SOPA/PIPA, but now Big Media moguls are going through non-governmental channels to try to sneak digital restrictions into every interaction we have online.

The petition is held by DefectiveByDesign.org, a campaign of the Free Software Foundation. Read more and sign here:
