Hello to everybody,
Section 3(a)(5) of CC-by-sa-v4.0draft2 states:

[...]
(5) You may not offer or impose any additional or different terms
on the Work. You may not restrict the ability of a recipient of
the Work from You to exercise the rights granted to that recipient
by the terms of this Public License, including through the
imposition of any effective technological measures.
[...]

The last part is the infamous anti-DRM (or anti-TPM, if you prefer)
clause, probably the most controversial part of CC-v3.0 licenses.
Again, it does not seem to have changed significantly.

That's a relief.
