Actually, removing DRM from a book if it's not licensed to you is NOT trivial. The DRM removal tools all rely on a knowledge of the encryption key. None will operate without that key. All that you'll achieve by uploading such a book is:

1. A file that can be traced back to you by its DRM.
2. A file that nobody else but you can remove the DRM from.

I really wouldn't recommend doing this.
