If you can see Kindle being mentioned in that article then you're the cuckoo one IMO. The article is about Amazon as an online retailer who has records on what you've bought. That applies to pretty much every single online retailer that operates a large business.

I like how you convienently quoted the sections which allow you to argue about this and not the part that Amazon didn't reveal what each person purchased and actually sued to prevent that disclosure. They complied with the minimum requirement of saying how much somebody spent but not what was purchased. They had to do this by law. The government insisted that they turn over this information. Amazon actually tried to protect your privacy! Oh no. Can't put that bit into your quotes.

Anything to do with the privacy issues that others are complaining about for the Kindle? No.
Does it single out Kindles? No.
Does it even mention eBook readers? No.
Are you trolling? Yes.
