Not necessarily. I think many people here dislike DRM because it limits the use of the files they purchase. If there were a form of DRM that guaranteed I'd be able to read the books I buy indefinitely into the future and on any device I purchase then I would be perfectly happy to buy books with that DRM. So if it were legal to distribute these DRM removal tools then DRM wouldn't be an issue and I wouldn't care if all ebooks came with DRM. I guess what I am trying to say is that DRM is not necessarily a problem as long as people are free to find ways to remove it and thus have full access to the content they buy.
