All that being said, the solution for that is simply to remove drm from your books and save a copy. This has *nothing* to do with device registration or how you want to fake it/skip it.
I’d say the solution is both. Remove the DRM, and never register. Never give the company permission to delete your files. Opt out of the surveillance. It will unfortunately mean losing access to some services they offer, but piece of mind is worth it. For me, at least.
