Removing PDF Passwords covers this subject in more detail. The new hardened DRM solution uses multiple encryption layers with Adobe Licensing server having the control to change the mechanism of encrypted key generation.
Publishers who implemented the latest edition were also in for a shock. Customers reported losing e-books from their libraries after having upgraded to the latest version of Adobe Digital Editions. Access being denied to PDF documents and ebooks after an Adobe update is not new. PDF is still the most common format for document distribution since it produces reliable results across all platforms.
However, if you are serious about protecting PDF ebooks from piracy and theft and are happy to provide your own means of distribution then using an ebook DRM that does not rely on Adobe or a third party DRM plugin to Acrobat since they also rely on the Adobe Security Handler is clearly the way forwards. We stop printing to PDF, stop screen grabbers and lock ebooks to devices so they cannot be shared. You can publish whole ebook libraries on USB sticks and then later grant access to individual books.
User can also add new ebooks as you publish them and you can grant access accordingly.

You are truly showing an understanding of the real world! For the record bud, you are not someone that I would want to sell my book to.
If you want to read my book, you pay for it and abide by the terms of sale, one of which is shut your mouth after the fact. I fail to understand how reasonable people can expect free digital content just because it can be viewed on a computer. These same people do not expect free bread at a bakery or free paperbacks at a book store. Some computer users believe the Internet is, and should be, free — when if fact, most of the content on the web has a price and a cost — usually in the form of annoying advertising.
This site is an example. While some authors produce and distribute royalty free works, many authors believe they have a right to earn an income from their copyright material.

Thankfully, there are national and international laws that are in place to help protect your work. In this article, I will explain how to copyright you work, and other basics about copyrighting. This will mostly deal with the Unites States copyright laws, although many things will apply to international copyrights as well. Surprisingly, you do not have to even register your work with the US copyright office to have copyright protection.
The law clearly indicates that as soon as the work is finished, you own the copyright, and therefore, have copyright protection. So as soon as you are done with your self published book or eBook, you automatically have copyright protection. Not registering a copyright officially may be the best thing for certain publishing mediums where it would be impractical to attempt to copyright something such as a website, eBook you will distribute for free, etc.
Instead, you can simply publish and distribute your work at your will, and you still have protection. For example, if you really spend a lot of time on your work, and want to ensure you get full protection and suspect you may get infringed and have to later bring a lawsuit , I would highly recommend registering you work.
