Does anyone have any sources to confirm or deny this? I've heard that this is so but not found any supporting references.
Heard where? It sounds like pure paranoia to me.

Amazon can certainly track what books you purchase from the Kindle store (and has to for things like royalty accounting), but I can't imagine why they or anyone else should be interested in what you read, for how long, and where you bookmark. Why on earth should anyone else care?
