I agree with HarryT Amazon do not record and turn over information to the government and I see no logical use for this data by the government. The most likely reason Amazon want you to register is because they are essentially giving you free Internet access at their cost. It's understandable that they would like to monitor this as they need to know if anyone is abusing the service as it would cost them money and have a detrimental effect on others using the service.
In any case it is possible to turn off the data logging/big brother features of the kindle and if you look around the forums you will find out how, if I remember correctly there is a link in the Comprehensive list of kindle hacks thread.
I think you should just calm down and not be so paranoid. The Kindle is a fantastic device to use and the Whispernet features are actually pretty useful.
