You are right, you are not pro DRM. I would had to write:"I don't understand your position against the anti DRM clause in GPLv3". Now is clear to me that you think that a licence is not the right place to assert this. But where you think is the right place?

GPLv3 allows implementing DRM

Keep in mind that GPLv3 does not prohibit DRM, it just protects freedom #1 (the freedom to adapt the software you received to suit your needs) - which enables you to escape from DRM restrictions (if you want to).
