That's not your decision to make. They own their sites and content. You are, of course, free to ignore it. If you don't like a site, use the back button.

You can complain, of course. What you can't do is control others. That's something the web is good at working around.

They try to spread DRM-malware over the EME interface onto the user's computers.

And you have the options to not use it. You don't get to decide what other people do with their property. That's pretty much against the reasons the web is here.

You can complain, if you want. That doesn't appear to be helping but you're free to do so.

My strategy is to avoid it where reasonably possible. I let other people do what they want with their stuff.
