It has been those in the "user" table of the KoboReader.sqlite file. If you can remove or invalidate the user id, the contact with the server becomes more anonymous. Kobo has added to the user table cells with the firmware updates, so there may be a differently constructed series of entries required to create the results you are looking for. For my older FW all I do is just zero out any alphanumeric cells (including urls) and set all the true/false cells to false.
