Google DRM for Email can be disabled by ticking a few boxes in Firefox

        But when it comes to defeating confidential mode, there are
        even more effective, easier ways to break the restrictions on
        emails and attachments: Firefox's "Style Editor" lets you tick
        a few boxes to disable the restrictions.  It's more evidence
        that "confidential mode" is a fool's errand. As with other
        forms of Digital Rights Management (like the restrictions on
        saving Netflix videos or refilling your inkjet cartridges),
        confidential mode seeks to provide untrusted parties with
        sensitive information, and then recruits their devices to
        enforce limits on how they use that information.
