As far as ethical, I believe you are confusing your opinion with a fact. Since the OP is the one having the problem, I will let the OP decide.

And none of the ethics/legality stuff changes the fact that it is technically possible to strip DRM from overdrive EPub library books, as JSWolf has confirmed.
FWIW, I accept the fact that it is possible.

Yes, my opinion is that it is unethical. Would you care to share your opinion?

As for legality, it’s probably moot. I don’t think there is anyone in the FBI trying to track down people who may be doing this.

OTOH someone doing this would be unwise to inform Adobe or Overdrive or the library they are borrowing from about it.
