MODERATORS
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.
That's great. This conversation was about the US.
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.
