"The **license** *may* prohibit distribution of licensed works with
technical measures that restrict the exercise of required permissions."

1. Cool.

2. If this is intended to target only DRM, is it worth specifically
using the phrase "Effective technological Measures"?

3. I assume that the GPLv3 and CC 4.0's strategies are regarded as
permissions rather than requirements.

They could also be phrased as requirements:

The **license** *may* require that technical measures applied to
distributed licensed works be considered ineffective.

The **license** *may* require a grant of permission to circumvent
technical measures applied to licensed works for distribution.

I think it's more useful to consider them permissions, but it may be
worth including them as acceptable requirements if this would help
provide clarity (probably combining them into a more general case).
