At first that sounds half-innocent but it's none of their business what I read, how long I read and so on.
So is Kobo spying upon the user? Can I disable these privacy violations? |
Amazon tracks this information too, and reports it back to publishers as well. The difference is, Kobo lets you do something with your own data.
eP
EDIT: to clarify, I know they report this information to publishers IN THE AGGREGATE. As in, last month we sold 2000 copies of X book and 20% of those read and finished the book. I don't think Amazon is transmitting any user information to the publishers.
