GOG once did enforce the use of DRM-free executables, but (as far as I understand it) once they expanded their store to include modern AAA titles, some of the bigger game companies refused to follow that rule so they dropped the requirement.
This is wrong.
There's only one game on GOG that doesn't offer DRM-free installers, and that's their live service game Gwent.

And that contradicts my statement... how exactly?
