Do you honestly believe they won’t implement copying a sentence.

I honestly believe they WILL implement copy paste...

... along with tracking exactly what you copied, when, where you hovered your mouse, inserting all sorts of features into your copied piece of “plain text”

... along with the ability to force-turn off copying from server side whenever it benefits them.

You WILL use ChromeOS (by another name) and you WILL like it

All of this is done without canvas. Maybe less drama would help.

Currently it’s pretty easy to get around such blocks. Compare with how hard it is to get around modern, proper DRM.

I have faith this implementation will be modern and proper, as the fate of the ad industry and those who rely on it, rely on it.
