You can test your convictions by disabling DRM content in Firefox. Uncheck "Play DRM content".
Unfortunately, convictions won't have consequences on future decisions because the standard is here and the more you wait the more it becomes embedded. W3C allowed it to come to light when various plugins wouldn't make DRM viable or at least more difficult to implement and reach general agreement. Now, even if you can opt out with Firefox, Netflix really don't care about that because you decided to disable it so you are a bad client anyway. I understand why the article is talking about pop-ups because the moment Firefox decided to implement it, we lost the fight. I use Firefox but lately, I am saddened by their lack of strong convictions and how they tend to follow google a little too much. (At least, FF sandboxed the CDM, while not perfect, the other browsers didn't do it, isn't it?)
