- personal DRM usage

This is what I actually misunderstood. I thought that the anti-DRM/TPM
clause prohibits any use of such method for distribution (some debian
page stated that copying the work using ssl encryption is not
possible) . Most of my concerns are invalidated if DRM/TPM it is
allowed for "private distribution".

To avoid any misunderstandings:
DRM/TPM encryption is allowed as long as it's for *private use*, you may not prevent others from using the work. Copying a work to a DRM protected platform is OK if you are the end user. "Private distribution" is a misleading description since it implies that it's ok to distribute such a DRM/TPM encrypted work to friends etc.
