I go one better. I refuse to own a Kindle.

But I'm very interested in this topic, especially since the Kindle has a huge share of the market and could possibly become an effective monopoly. And I appreciate the efforts of anyone that investigates the potential for the abuse of data collection.

Poetcop just stated the issue more pointedly and eloquently than I can. And unquestioning, naive acceptance of the potential for abuse by the general public affects me and concerns me.
