Really? Thanks much, I had no idea, that would have saved some time.

I humbly suggest this info be placed on the front page, perhaps under here:

Note for Kindle Special Offers Users:

This doesn't, and won't ever, help you bypass something you agreed to (screensaver ads), so please stop asking.

If you still have questions, please read this post.

That said, you can unsubscribe to Special Offers at any point of the process with no ill effect.
Do note that the "Swipe to Unlock" behavior is a particularity of the Special Offers screensavers that this hack will not replicate (this is in particular good to know if you happen to own a magnetic cover, since those severely limit the effective amount of time you'll actually see a screensaver).

EDIT:
Just saw this in the FAQ... but I hadn't recognized the term 'SO screensavers' so I didn't help me:

Q. Got the SO screensavers?
A. Tough luck, it's an SO device, unsubscribe (See the 'Manage Your Devices' section in the 'Manage Your Kindle' page @ Amazon) .
