This is not true. As has been pointed out in other threads legal fair use of material does not make DRM circumvention legal. And it is Amazon that owns the DRM-system so they can complain about DRM circumvention.

Remember, KindlePID does not remove DRM - if it is a circumvention tool this is only the case because mobidedrm exists.
Depending of what is considered to belong to the DRM system kindlefix could be considered to be technical cirmumvention of DRM.
