DRM doesn't bother me terribly much, as long as I can easily remove it from books that I buy. If things get to the point where I cannot easily remove the DRM from purchased books, I will not buy any more books that contain DRM.
If someone surveyed me regarding DRM, I would say that I am against it as it is currently implemented (forced on honest purchasers, ineffective on thieves), neither for or against it in principle (preventing theft), but I would also state that it does not (currently) affect my purchasing decisions. So depending on how the survey was written (i.e., what pre-determined conclusion it was trying to achieve), I might appear either for, or neutral, or against DRM. Take your pick, survey manipulators.
