Certainly you could back up the DRM'd version. It's just a file. And you wouldn't have to strip DRM to do that.
If there is a law that specifically allows it I'd like to be aware of it.

I don't doubt anything you are saying.......... but in all fairness I have never seen "specific legislation" that says it is against the law to strip the DRM from an ebook. I know the publishers/sellers "policy", or perhaps even user agreements, but I have never heard of anyone getting prison time for it, or even a fine.
I think most of these kind of things are just fear tactics to intimidate the masses.........
