So, it's a foolish decision, but then again, who would want the KFX files for expensive textbooks?
No, you need to download the books with Kindle for PC 2.8.0 to extract the keys with Sats tool. Or are you just speculating that a similar tool could be made to work with Kindle for Android?

Satsuoni has mentioned before that they successfully used their key extractor with K4A via WSA. If it still works, it should be possible to remove the DRM from "high-security" Kindle eBooks via K4A.

Japanese customers cannot change their country setting to anything other than Japan on Kobo.com. People in Japan use Rakuten Kobo via their Rakuten account, not a Kobo account.

No, they said they decrypted books downloaded with Kindle for Android. But the key extractor specifically uses Kindle for PC 2.8.0. So I'm pretty sure you cannot use it on anything that can't also be downloaded with Kindle for PC.

You can't use the key extractor for anything other then K4PC as it's written for Windows.

Yes, as I said, the key extractor specifically works with Kindle for PC 2.8.0. So while the key will apparently work on a book from Kindle for Android, you have to download a copy with Kindle for PC to get that key in the first place.
