[FEATURE REQUEST] DRM Popup #2301

@Athanasius

Description

@Athanasius

Current Behavior (if any)

Things like "have DRM" are only shown if you remember to scroll down in a store page and look at the pertinent section.

Desired Behavior

Option for an in-page popup on page load (or whenever the information becomes available if checking a third-party resource) warning that a game has DRM.

Motivation / Use Case for Changing the Behavior

It seems that DRM like Denuvo is likely going to get more aggressive, which may have consequences for gaming on Linux (Ref: https://www.xda-developers.com/linux-gamers-didnt-do-wrong-pay-windows-piracy/ ) . Thus I don't want to accidentally even Wishlist a game with Denuvo (and probably other DRM too), let alone buy it.

I'm human, I won't always think to scroll down and check, so an option for a pop-up would be of great assistance. I'm thinking of how another browser extension, "AI Warning for Steam", creates a pop-up if a game has a use of AI declaration. It's right in your face, impossible to miss.

You could, of course, potentially extend such pop-up functionality to other appropriate warnings.
