However, I wanted to ask the knowledgeable folks here about the privacy policies of the various e-readers and ebook stores out there (see, for example, this CSM article or the EFF's e-book privacy chart).
Which ebook readers and ebook stores are most respectful of the privacy of their customers and allow the most latitude for opting in (or out) of any collection? |
Your nickname does not match or go with your fears? lol ... sorry, I could not resist the joke.
I would not worry about Amazon's cloud. As long as you "disinfect" your ebooks, you should be fine. Or.. do you rely on Amazon's cloud copies only?
In today's world, it is virtually impossible to be 100% disconnected from the cloud. Only way is turning the wifi off all the time and you will have to turn it on at some point.
