And at that point you might as well Scan and OCR a pbook.
Which existed long before ebook DRM even popped up.
Once you invoke the analog hole DRM becomes irrelevant.
Again, the intent is to make sure GERGE's aunt doesn't get too generous...

...not to prevent 100.00% of unauthorized copies.
Not even the BPHs are stupid enough to think they can stop every last copy.
If nothing else, they wouldn't be embedding watermarks in encrypted ebooks to determine which DRM scheme leaks the most.
