They absolutely do not know who the owner is.

The Kindle may have been:
  • Purchased as a gift
  • Sold
  • Traded
  • Given away
  • Refurbished by a third party
  • Lost/Stolen
  • Inherited

Correctly identifying the owner of a device is just a mess that Amazon (and any other device manufacturer) does not need.
