Ei pidä uskoa kaikkeen mitä markkinoidaan "open sourcina". Eräs esimerkki on Pipelight, sillä se on Microsoft-vetoinen mukamas open source mutta se on tosiasiassa DRM ... sitä paitsi SILTÄ PUUTTUU LINUX TUKI. Se on siis ILLUUSIO YHTEENSOPIVUUDESTA.

“Pipelight is a wrapper for Windows NPAPI plugins such as Silverlight, Widevine or Flash (the Windows version) which allows you to use these plugins in native Linux web browsers and thus, use services that aren’t officially supported on Linux, such as Netflix (Silverlight), HBO Go (Widevine) and so on.”

"The version 35 of Chromium has a major side effect that many people are not going to like. The support for browser plugins that use Mozilla’s NPAPI protocol to communicate with the browser has been removed and only Google’s own PPAPI protocol is supported as of now (MS Windows users still have a bit of time before the same happens to their Chrome browser – removal of NPAPI support in Windows is scheduled for the end of 2014). This step was of course announced long time ago and many reminders were posted, but if you need Java support in your browser, or want to watch Netflix using pipelight, then you are out of luck. PPAPI versions for these browser plugins do not exist and in the case of pipelight, are very hard to create. "

Ylipäätänsä kaikkeen "Windows-yhteensopivuuteen" kannattaa suhtautua hyvin, hyvin kriittisesti. Sieltä ne tulevat mahdolliset ongelmat kuten monta kertaa ollaan nähty. Windows on näet synnynnäisesti epävakaa ja turvaton ekosysteemi, täynnä takaportteja ja aukkoja.
