On my Voyage neither has a tick right now so no sync should happen.

What I can't see is what happens to the Wifi password already saved on the device from before the update. But perhaps one of you can find out?
This question is answered right on the Kindle if you bother to press the "Learn More" link.

FAQ #4: Did previous passwords entered on this device get saved to my Amazon Account if I did not select the option to Save Passwords to Amazon?

(Short Answer, No)

I hate to say it, but it looks like Amazon really impleted this feature right. Not only is it opt in only, but it has to be opt in for each password individually.
