What we do in life is tracked enough as it is, I'd rather my ebook reader doesn't help marketers gather up more data on me. Thus, I chose my Sony Reader partly because it can't phone home by design. Not saying the Kindle or other WiFi-enabled ebook readers necessarily do, but with the Sony Reader, I'm certain it doesn't. I paid more for it because, to me, not having a WiFi-enabled reader was an added feature.
