    I’d like to clarify that removing DRM does lie in a grey zone in many countries, including in the US due to some court rulings. In some countries the right to make a backup of your e-book might have priority over copyright law for example.

      Sure, but companies who employ DRM have argued against that grey area since DRM was a thing. Something something IP/copyright/licensing/whatever bullshit… IMO: fuck you, I bought it, I own it, eat shit.

        Correct… How are they going to enforce their “property” rights when I do it at home?

        These corpo parasites are delulu hence why I stopped spending money on media.

        Get fucked.
