I think that’s a bad idea because I don’t want people to think watching video on a computer is okay.

Video (movies) should be enjoyed on a big screen with a good screen.

These platforms should give creators a way to prohibit viewing on small screens, Linux, etc.

Why does absolute size matter? Viewing angle is surely far more important, with something made for THX being optimised for 40°

And as for blocking the most popular video playing platform out there - at least for large screens - the only question would be “why”
