But the real quandary I have is if these people are so adamant that what they are doing is right, and so easy, and at least in cfrizz's case, daring someone to do something about it, why then are they complaining so mightily in outrage, whining and blaming the Sellers, Publishers, and Authors for causing them so much trouble, and even accusing the Sellers, Publishers and Authors of painting them in a bad light.
Maybe the truth is that DRM works. It keeps pilferage down. The evidence is plain if you listen to the caterwauling on this thread. These people are hurting.
I feel a little safer.

What "misdeeds" are you talking about? You imply someone is hurt by his
stated actions, who would that be? Are you admitting now that it is not
the "pilferage" that you view as theft but the simple act of removing the
DRM? There is nothing in his post that would suggest that he uploads or
even gives away a copy of the ebooks that he buys, in fact much of the
opposite.
