This isn’t a debate about the legality of the matter, but on whether it’s ethical to DeDRM ebooks that you’ve checked out from a library. The publishing company and author are usually paid for each copy that you’ve lent, which is often why eBooks exhaust large parts of a library’s budget. If you are able to loan a book for a month, but you DeDRM it and don’t share it anyone else, and therefore instead finish it in two months, is this ethical? Or have you intentionally reduced the potential for more revenue to the author by instead not lending it twice? Do the publishers predatory licensing fees for libraries make this more ethical?
Really? Lucky for you then. There are plenty things II must do whether I like them or not. And things happening to me whether I want them to or not.
I did not say we get to choose what our options are, only that there are always options to be chosen.
I believe that the first thing evil men must do to make us do evil is to convince us we have no choice.
But you do. And those choices are who you will have been, when it’s all over.
