The Kindle seems to allow that. The Public Notes option shows highlights and notes from people you follow on kindle.amazon.com. I don't know how it works since I have absolutely no interest in following anyone.

Fortunately, I can turn all note and highlight sharing options completely off. I wish I could turn off the "tell the world that you just finished this book" or "tell the world that you just bought this book" stuff.
