Surely the most important point here is that, given it's now legal to remove ebook DRM for the purposes of enabling TTS or allowing the text to be read in a specialised manner, it's also legal to develop and distribute the tools needed to do this?

E.g. it would be legal to distribute a program that took an encrypted epub, decrypted it to a temporary directory and then read it aloud, since the standard epub readers don't offer a TTS function. No need to hide the code away in obscure pastebin codedumps.
