To be fair, Flash was adopted because there wasn't a better (in terms of practicality) alternative for streaming video at all, not because of the digital restriction feature. Videos that aren't from big producers probably won't be affected by EME, and I'm sure video sharing sites like YouTube will at worst simply have an option to enable digital restrictions that not everyone will use. But regardless, it's true that this will cause problems that could even be catastrophic.
