Really it's down to the company's selling ebooks get rid of DRM and introduce a product number system where as every copy sold of a book should come with a security number thats locks it to the buyer, so if it turns up on a illegal website or torrent site it can be traced back to the buyer.
any illegal activity or copyright infringement would then be the owner of the copies responibility. DRM hurts mainly the people that are legally buying books but lose out in end because DRM not only limits there ability use there bought book as they want but limits such things as being able to edit it the way you want it.
Instead of restricting the legal customer that only wants to read the book and keep it in his collection(which he is righly allowed to do for life since he bought it) and product code system would be best because it gives you that freedom plus it puts the responsiblilty on you personly as to keeping your book from being copied and will allow illegal activity to be traced back to you.
Thats Fair
