So they won't ship GPLv3 software. Or more accurately they will have to think about the consequences of blanket DRM (I'm not at all convinced all of them will rather get in bed with a difficult parter like MS just to avoid following the GPLv3 license)

Right now they can eat their cake and keep it too - but it's no entitlement
