I disagree. Whatever happened to personal responsibility?

I take it that you think that any website that provides the tools to strip the DRM from books, should be held responsible for copyright violation when someone uses those tools to illegally strip the DRM off of a copyrighted work?

BTW, is it fair for Australia to declare the works of George Orwell public domain, while they are still under copyright in the country where they were first published?
