Whilst we do not know exactly what Amazon is doing we do know how KU works and we do know what Amazon claims to be able to do, albeit without details. We cannot be at all certain that an author will be paid if the book is read on a non-Amazon device or app. I'm not even certain an author will be paid if DRM is removed and the version without DRM is read on a Kindle device or App. I think it is far more probable than not that Amazon has measures in place to detect page-flipping, whether it is accomplished by flipping, scrolling or black magic.

The only way at the moment to be sure a KU author is paid is to read the author's book on a Kindle device or app without removing the DRM infection.
