Primarily to prevent data exchange with Amazon (at least I hope that there is no data exchange when the device is unregistered). They do not need to know what I am reading, or have access to e.g. deleting books, as happened in the past if I recall the news correctly.

Kindle doesn't communicate directly with Wikipedia, it uses these two Amazon service points:

https://wiki-acx.amazon.co.uk/V1/wiki
It should be easy to change the parameter to false and rebuild the ACX, if you want to give it a try. |
I will give this a try (first I'll have to check out how to actually do that :-) I suppose
https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Kindle_Touch_ACX applies to the PW2 as well?)
