AFAIK, it'd be impossible to do. Plugin support means that a program can execute external code and thus, that code can be written to remove DRM.

Yes, that's my point.

Perhaps SteveEisenberg would like Narendra Modi to engage in totalitarian actions (sure to go over well with the populace) by forcing Kovid to add a blacklist... which would last at least a few hours before the plugin got renamed.

I'm sure it wouldn't cause a wave of publicity for the tools, either.

Meanwhile, on the planet Earth...
