This happens every time: new technology disrupts existing players, which in turn try to use their money / influence to do something about it. Then skilled people fight back with newer innovations.

For example, do you know how easy it is to bypass China's firewall?
(1) setup free usage tier AWS account
(2) start a new instance with one of the official Ubuntu images
(3) ssh -D 2000 ubuntu@<instance-ip>
(4) enjoy personal US-based SOCKS5 proxy ;)
The only problem with DRM is that you're prohibited by law to reverse engineer it, which means totally-legit software can be baned if not following certain guidelines (like security by obscurity) ... otherwise I'm all for DRM because it's fundamentally flawed and it's keeping them busy (like a dog chasing its tail).
