So this new 'innovation' has just recently been created for Glo owners.
I'm not sure if this is true. I vaguely remember people having to put a fake registration into the database to be able to use their Touch without a Kobo account. Have you tried actually sideloading and reading books on the Touch after resetting and skipping the setup?
