The video points out paragraph 8:
> Also, the Commission has received thousands of consumer comments objecting to broadcasters employing the use of Digital Rights Management encryption on their ATSC 3.0 signals because the complaints state that such action has resulted in the consumer’s inability to receive programming despite having purchased an ATSC 3.0 enabled device.23 What steps can or should the industry and/or the Commission take to ensure broadcasters are able to protect their content and signal, while also ensuring viewers are able to continue to view a station’s free over-the-air signal in ATSC 3.0 just as they do today?
and goes over some suggestions on how, if you object to DRM, to possibly enter comments (e.g., reasonable arguments backed up evidence versus what broadcast could possibly do (which they could deny)).
