--- Comment #4 from Sebastian Lackner <sebastian at fds-team.de> ---
Yes, the issue is still present in Wine 1.7.35. It is worth noting that not all
websites are affected. See the bug report
https://bugs.launchpad.net/pipelight/+bug/1235918 for more information. There
are no technical problems to fix this bug, but it is a legal problem.

The Software Freedom Conservancy initially planned to take a look, but then
after half a year changed their mind because this is a Pipelight issue, and
"Pipelight is not a conservancy member". They can't help us with this
"Pipelight-specific code" we're proposing to research and write. (Don't get
confused by this answer, it is indeed a Wine bug, to be more precise the
missing COPP implementation. No reactions on our attempts to explain the
situation.) We contacted other organizations but didn't receive any clear
answer so far, so we can't proceed with fixing this issue.

If someone can help to ensure that the legal situation allows implementing this
stuff, then we'll continue working on it. Otherwise (and much more likely) this
bug will stay open forever. The bug should probably be renamed to describe the
problem a bit better though:

Silverlight 5.x can't individualize on some websites (missing implementation
for Certified Output Protection Protocol interface)
