Ultimately I'd imagine that soon the EU will explicitly state that it violates the principle of GDPR, that you buy a hardware that doesn't need Google, Amazon, Kobo, Microsoft, Apple services etc to operate and you are coerced into giving those organisations your information.
The fact that Kobo lets it work (currently) with a fake email is irrelevant. It's immoral. The fact that Google and Amazon are worse and it's simple is irrelevant.
