so if I base64 encode my blog, have some Javascript that 'validates' an authorized viewer and then decodes the base64 into HTML which is added to the DOM does that constitute DRM ?

I would say no because you need to retain the control over the IP from your end.

Typically DRMs are implemented server-side so you can control user access in that way.
