I can't help it if the EFF (an organization I support) isn't clear enough for you. Nonetheless, it is true.

Oh, it's probably tracking, just waiting for you to turn on the wifi so it can send out it's little info packet about your reading habits.
Aside from my initial setup, I never turn on WiFi on any of my e-readers. I do wear enough of a tin-foil hat that I prefer to sideload even when I bought from B&N and read on a Nook. Though I admit, I mainly turn off WiFi because it feels unnecessary to me since I'm going to Alf all my books anyway and likely edit them, so may as well sideload.
