    The DMCA makes it pretty clear that “Circumvention of Technological Protection Measures” is illegal. There are no exceptions for whether you own or redistribute the content in question.

      I don’t care what some stupid US law says. It doesn’t apply to me.

          It really wasn’t.

          You tried to make it about the US when the topic is about a company that operates internationally, that’s what.

          Personally, I wouldn’t be surprised is breaking national law in many countries with their one-size-fits-all approach.

          But I’d rather just not give a crap about that and just keep pirating my books.

            It really was. Do you not know what the DMCA is? It’s US law.
