I am not persuaded. WMF is not the creator of the content it has to follow the rules of the GNU FDL as a license. There might be good reasons to block live mirrors but that doesn't matter if blocking live mirrors is something lika a DRM. And the GNU FDL forbidds DRM.
The content is made available live for reading conventionally. There is no requirement to make it available in an unconventional way, which is as true catering for live mirrors as it is for dealing with requests for clay tablets on demand.
DRMs are not relevant here; a DRM is an impediment built into and inseperable from the information you pass out, not simply a decision to choose who you do or do not pass it out to.
