We don't need their trust. They need ours. I'm quite sure they don't particularly trust us not to strip DRM. However if they started snooping on our private documents to stop us, it would likely end up in the news and on the blogoshpere pretty quickly. The fallout would be enormous. It wouldn't be worth it. They'd lose too many customers and potential customers. It would make the 1984 thing look like nothing. As long as I'm not redistributing my liberated books, they would have a hard time claiming damages. They could ban me as a customer but they're the real loser there, too.
