Extracting content from an LCP "protected" ePub (included are also arrogant messages from the Readium consortium that created the DRM) (shkspr.mobi)

Finally there are some more methods to tackle LCP DRM, but the messages to the creator from Readium consortium is so frustrating. Just read this:

"We were planning to now focus on new accessibility features on our open-source Thorium Reader, better access to annotations for blind users and an advanced reading mode for dyslexic people. Too bad; disturbances around LCP will force us to focus on a new round of security measures, ensuring the technology stays useful for ebook lending (stop reading after some time) and as a protection against oversharing."

Publishers and companies will always want DRM

Developers should refuse to write malware.
