I know I can lend my actual physical ebook reader.
That is not waht I was asking.
Let me be more specific.
Can I lend my brother the computer file called anybook.lrf for him to read on his computer or ebook on condition that he deletes it after he has read it?

In that way you can do more with DRM-ed ebooks than you can with a physical book. You can register 4-6 devices to legally read the same book simultaneously.
And as to Kaan, when you give your address as "US" you are not passing yourself off as a US citizen. As long as your credit card payment goes through you have done nothing wrong. The regional restrictions are between the publishers and the booksellers, the website might get into trouble, not you.
And no lame excuses, please. If you cannot obtain something through legal means that still does not give you the right to get it through illegal means. Just imagine if everybody applied your reasoning in real life. "Hey, I can't afford that Ferrari, but I want one. So I will just take one".
