Okay, people jailbreak devices and if you can break out of jail you were, by definition, either in jail or using a metaphor. The fact is that there are no bars included with the Kindle, or wardens, and the only cells are in the battery. There is no literal jail.

So are you proposing that Amazon, in it's advertising, seek out every negative metaphor and warn people about it? Do you warn a potential boss during an interview that at times you're lazy and lackadaisical?

In any case, all the various views and metaphors and ideas, sensible and silly, are available on the internet for google to find for you. If you wanted to know you would know. You bought a device that works a certain way after doing as much research as you chose to do.
