It means nothing of the sort. It means the story on Ubuntu is the

Possibly stupid question: what would stop anyone from providing an
alternative implementation that's open source? Patents in the DRM?
It's probably more trouble than it's worth now that it's working on the
browser on the desktop. It's also probably against the DMCA. Plus
Netflix would probably immediately block it and sue the developers
because if they didn't all of their content providers would pull their
contracts and Netflix would cease to exist.
