The UUID is not a watermark. I have removed the DRM from plenty of ePub and I've seen the code and there are not lots of hidden markers. Also, DeDRM has an option to remove watermarks which do remove the UUID and other things if they are there. This would be done should the ePub had DRM or not. DeDRM even removes the Kindle eBook watermark even if the eBook has no DRM.
You are worrying over nothing.

Anyway, it is said everywhere that the act itself, for one's personal use or not is in fact an offence.
We the final users must face facts, for unfair they could be.

As long as removing DRM s for your personal use, there's no offense. It's called fair use.
It seems wherever you get your information is wrong about most everything.
