I don't have a Kindle but a pal of mine who does is very concerned about security of the Kindle and the ability of Amazon to look at what you are doing with your Kindle. So what he has done is a waste of the Wifi functions but he side loads all of his books never through wifi which he keep switched off. His firewall his told very specifically which software are allowed to transmit information to the internet and who is not and Amazon is not one of them that are allowed to transmit: simply the web browser and the security software are allowed to transmit. He swears that since his firewall does not permit the Kindle to transmit anything Amazon is getting nothing from him.
