Well; when I had some troubles one day with my Kindle and I emailed to Amazon if I was wise to download to update 01.; before I got an answer, the next day that update was on my Kindle (before they pushed it automatically to all customers). I was a bit surprised that they didn't communicate about that. But I thought; well, I would have had that update anyway.
The next week I phoned Amazon because I couldn't use the searchfunction and the Kindle kept freezing up on that. Someone from Amazon asked: " do you mind if I look in your Kindle?''. Stupid, but somehow it felt like he asked ' can I look into your home?". He didn't ask if I had my Wifi on or what, so I wondered at that time if Amazon always has access to my Kindle?
I have to do some research; what's their policy. But yes, somehow, both times it felt a bit like an intrusion. Maybe that's something personal.
I did wonder at that time, whether they could see/read all my documents on the Kindle.
