Seems one is as bad as the other as far as gray areas go.
Jon, softroot allows you to install homebrew software onto the Nook device, software of any kind. Tools to remove DRM, well, they are solely meant to remove DRM. I don't see how the two relate to each other in terms of gray areas. What you personally do with either of the two techniques, and whether it is within the law of the country you live in, is not ours to judge. We only kindly ask you to accept that we do not want to nor cannot allow direct links to DRM cracking tools.

Thank you.
