How do I convert a DRM protected file to PDF?. Key+lock equals hacked DRM, once it gets in the hand of the right developer.Īnd once it’s been hacked, there’s really no justification for it. It’s digital lock, yes, but for customers to read what they bought they must also have the key. That story illustrates why DRM never works in the long run. The hacker then disassembled the reading app to get at the DRM code. In that time, at least one hacker downloaded it and took it apart. It was online for a couple weeks before they realized their mistake. One developer, Irex, accidentally posted a complete firmware for the Illiad, their 8″ ereader. Back in 2007 (before Amazon started killing off Mobipocket), there were a number of third party ereader that read Mobi ebooks and supported Mobi DRM.
