Doesn't seem hypocritical to me. Can you attempt an argument for why the two are comparable?

DRM is a restricting technology that is self perpetuating. Even if the copyright rights of a DRM content fall into public domain you can still be punished for trying to bypass DRM. Isn't that hypocritical ?
