I didn't divert it. I merely took issue with people who were already suggesting there were no moral components to it, and/or defending the practice as OK because "not piracy." I wasn't even the first (or the second) person to mention morality with regard to thwarting geo-restrictions.

I agree. Hence why I make no effort to "defend" my decision to remove DRM. And why I don't hassle anyone who doesn't try to defend it as if it were some sort of "right."

I'm not calling anyone out for breaking terms of service. That's where the disconnect is. I'm calling out anyone who claims to be
justified (or acting morally) when breaking terms of service; and anyone who believes they are somehow
entitled to buy any ebook they desire; and anyone who suggests that traveling or piracy are the only two choices when confronted with an ebook someone won't sell them because of where they reside.
