What: KindleForPC DRM removal utility to preserve your fair use rights!
Why: Fair use is a well established doctrine, and I am no fan of vendor
lockin.
How: This utility implements the PID extraction, DRM key generation and
decryption algorithms employed by the KindleForPC application. This
is a stand alone app that does not require you to determine a PID on
your own, and it does not need to run KindleForPC in order to extract
any data from memory.
Shoutz: The DarkReverser - thanks for mobidedrm! The last part of this
is just a C port of mobidedrm.
labba and I<3cabbages for motivating me to do this the right way.
You guys shouldn't need to spend all your time responding to all the
changes Amazon is going to force you to make in unswindle each time
the release a new version.
CMBDTC - nice work on the topaz break!
Lawrence Lessig - You are my hero. 'Nuff said.
Cory Doctorow - A voice of reason in a sea of insanity
Thumbs down: Disney, MPAA, RIAA - you guys suck. Making billions off
of the exploitation of works out of copyright while vigourously
pushing copyright extension to prevent others from doing the same
is the height of hypocrasy.
Congress - you guys suck too. Why you arrogant pricks think you
are smarter than the founding fathers is beyond me.

Rationale:
Need a tool to enable fair use of purchased ebook content.
Need a tool that is not dependent on any particular version of
KindleForPC and that does not need to run KindleForPC in order to
extract a PID. The tool documents the structure of the kindle.info
file and the data and algorthims that are used to derive per book
PID values.
Installing:
A compiled binary is included. Though it was built using cygwin, it
should not require a cygwin installation in order to run it. To build
from source, you will need cygwin with gcc and make.
This has not been tested with Visual Studio, though you may be able to
pile all the files into a project and add the Crypt32.lib, Advapi32 and
zlib1 dependencies to build it.
usage: ./skindle [-d] [-v] -i -o
