Webasm doesn't help much with drm since you can reverse engineer it just like any code. It doesn't have any privileged access to allow tricks like using a key stored in hardware (and other drm does).
It does allow blackbox libraries. So does compiling to JavaScript though. Really it just means that the black box binaries are (even) faster than the white box scripts.
