DRM is proprietary, no matter who does it or how.
The inner nature (source code, trade secret, or anything else) of DRM 
cannot legally be examined, published, or discussed without violating 
federal copyright and trade secret laws. Thus it is impossible to have 
"open DRM". Whether it be EME or a browser plugin, DRM is proprietary, 
there is no "open DRM", as something which cannot be opened is not "open".
