New to Kobo after my wife bricked her Sony. I still have a Sony but never had it authorized and sideloaded a couple of updates but was annoyed at the Kobo setup that seemed to insist on going to their website and registering. Someone was impatient so did not look for a workaround. We ADM to Calibre so don't see a need for Kobo desktop or connecting to their site. Calibre may start looking ugly with extra columns for Sony and Kobo.
TLDR will sideload software updates.
