> For the last 2 years I’ve been working on a web browser that now cannot be completed because Google, the creators of the open source browser Chrome, won’t allow DRM in an open source project.
It can too be completed, you're just not gonna have DRM'd content. I have a browser that has the same problem, and I just leave pages that can't do video playback (which doesn't include YouTube because they use WebM). There's still value in a non-DRM'd browser for most of the web, and hey, if enough of us use one maybe sites will start being more liberal in the licensing of their video (but let's be honest, probably not).
