I believe it's turned off by default and you can turn it on. I know I have turned it off, I'm absolutely not interested by those numbers!

Those are the two negative things for me about the One: Capacitive touch vs IR touch and the small battery. I don't know why the capacitive touch is so inacurate, but it's a small annoyance (and I don't have any comparison material, so I've no idea if it's worse or the same, on average, as other readers).
The battery is simply a wrong design decision, imo.
