Basically, if I was unable to remove the DRM from the eBooks I have bought, I would have lost a lot of eBooks I paid good money for.
No, because the servers are running

Is Amazon doing something illegal with KFX when the publisher requests that their eBooks be sold with no DRM yet Amazon adds DRM to these eBooks in KFX? Can these publishers opt out of KFX? Did they even opt in to KFX?
I don't know, but I heard that KFX supposedly can't be removed, but I don't know either.
