Fortunately Kindle DRM is so trivial to remove. I wish it had none but at least I know my books are mine forever and my reading habits are not being actively tracked if I use free non-Amazon ebook software.

Amazon seems to turn a blind eye to it, probably because so few readers can be bothered using de-drm software.



I learned to de-DRM my Amazon books due to the concerns of their licencing. Now I can put them on my phone and listen to the books with TTS. The kindle App for Android doesn't have the feature...


if the kindle app for ios is the same it does, highlight speech and tap the speaker icon at the bottom right


It's also pretty easy to ignore a paper contract... until you get caught. Then, the level of triviality of circumvention doesn't mean crap in court.
