Removable DRM isn't a bad thing. It prevents pirates without mens rea. When you learn how to remove it, you also learn what it is and why it exists. Therefore piracy becomes an ethical problem. A choice. That matters.
It prevents our old aunt to share her books on her blog and or send them to her friends. On the topic of our old aunts, mine used to watch movies on the Popcorn Time, after I told her that they are pirated, she stopped. Because she thought it was wrong to continue. Same process is also true for ebooks.
On the topic, there is nothing wrong with open-source cryptology. It is better even, look at the OpenPGP.
