Google playstore is full of scanned books of dubious provenance. For years their default upload type was PDF.
I'm 100% against copyright violation, piracy. But the USA sponsored DRM and increasing copyright duration (mostly for the benefit of Corporations like Disney) is not about protecting creators rights. It's about commercial control of consumers. DRM has almost no impact on piracy, but for consumers runs contrary to the intentions of the Berne Conventions on Copyright.
DRM is more evil than piracy.
