Interesting. But the question is whether the usage statistics are then aggregated or whether they are maintained with the original information that could individually identify users.
My guess is the former--they're looking for patterns in the data that can be used to become faster/better/cheaper. Why would they be interested in what you (or I) have read? But of course that's just a guess.
I wonder if we have any Amazon people around here that could help us understand this better?
