Note, if you actually look at that list you'll see it's a very loose interpretation of DRM. All of the games on that list work without any kind of phone-home security check, or unlock code, or anything like that. The list is stuff like "getting the DLC requires a third party account". It's definitely a list of things people don't like, but whether it is or isn't 'DRM' is not so clear cut.

GOG's official position is that the store doesn't allow DRM at all. They describe what they mean by DRM on that same page, and it sounds fairly reasonable; but its certainly understandable that some people would prefer a stricter set of rules.

You didn't scroll down the linked forum post, did you?

DEFCON - Linux: Game contacts a key verification server as described here. Win and Mac have offline executables that skip the verification. But under Linux there is no DRM-free offline executable.
F.E.A.R. - arguably a bug that stays unfixed. Securom remnants weren't removed and can cause the single player game not to start.

That's pretty DRM-y.

Yeah, but if you follow that DRM definition almost no game on Steam has DRM either.
