However, Harry .... keep in mind that whether or not someone is breaking the law sort of depends on which country they are in. It also makes a difference as to whether the government is going to take the time and resources to prosecute them.
If someone is purchasing digital books from Amazon and then choosing to read them on a device that is something other than an iPhone or a Kindle, and they are not distributing the books to others but are undertaking the DRM mangling totally for their own personal use, why would the government want to spend several thousand dollars prosecuting that individual?? It would be the perfect example of the "victimless crime."
