So if I look on pirate sites and find a copy of it, and download it, then this action has nothing at all to do with any copyright infringement.
Sorry, but that's not even remotely believable, or you would have come out with this argument much earlier. This is the first time you're saying anything about most of your books being out of copyright. I'm thinking you're just backpedaling now as you ran out of defensible arguments.

Of course you probably don't care whether I believe you or not. Neither do I care whether DRM removal makes me a thief in your eyes or not.
