Privacy: Are my book titles being uploaded to the Kobo cloud?
Do the Kobo WiFi and Touch upload the titles of side loaded books? I don't think so but when I do the desktop USB synchronizing I think I've seen a message implying that the current title being read is being uploaded. If so how can I turn this off?

The Touch counts page turns and # of books read for all books for Reading Life features--sideloaded and Kobo's own. I have no idea if titles or any other information is transmitted. You can opt out of Reading Life in settings.

I have asked this question of Kobo's privacy officer.
