It has no bearing. "DRM" that is easily by-passed has failed, so it's recommended to break it. Only DRM that is impenetrable or unbreakable is an issue.

You need to break Content Scrambling in order to watch or rip a DVD movie. Doing so with libdvdcss is not an issue with freedom.

But I wouldn't call it DRM (with Youtube). It's obfuscation. All they do is try to conceal the video address.

DRM is something that hurts your freedom by preventing to copy something you've legitimately bought or acquired.

The only questionable thing is the use of proprietary code that is runj in the browser or terminal to view or download the video.
