It isn't illegal either because no one made it illegal to sell other copying/downloading/bypassing equipment in the beginning. Maybe because they didn't want to annoy Xerox for example, or they it did not occur to them or because they (the lawmakers) wanted one for themselves. Possibly, but not likely even a common good defense.

Now it is too late. Too many electronic devices can copy/download/bypass. Pretty sure I could play a region restricted DVD on my laptop if I tried hard enough.

But because I can do something, can legally buy the equipment to do it and because no one is likely to catch me doing it, or prosecute me if they do, does not guaranty legality or even imply a right to do so.
