And of course if you are worried you could always change the metadata so that is it is still recognizable to you when on the device but Amazon whould have no standardized way of compiling it if they so desired.

Calibre plugboards let you alter the metadata sent to the device without affecting your original file.

Removing isbn, changing/abbreviating title/author would make it hard to tell if the book is a personal document or not. Collecting information on personal documents is probably not a legal right of Amazon's.

Not trying to condone piracy here but information collecting or data mining by any organisation is a bit to 1984 for me.
