I saw someone on YouTube pissed that they bought 700 ebooks from Amazon and now that they enforce a harder DRM he can't read them anymore.

Bruh, you voted with your wallet to get DRM in your ebooks. You can't complain if one day they change the encryption

The vast majority of the public hsve no idea what you just said.

Their brain goes "I like book. I buy book! No more book? But I buy book!"

I agree, but I also sort of think that's fair enough. The fact that most people "buying" ebooks don't understand what their transaction implies suggests a major market failing.
