Notwithstanding the foregoing, Amazon will keep their big fat noses out of my kindle!

I could (reluctantly) accept Amazon monitoring what I did to books I purchased from them.* But the possibility that they are going to look at the books I bought from other retailers or the library books I have on my kindle is unacceptable. This is like Blockbuster putting a trojan in my DVD that allows them to tell I was watching porn (I wasn't, I swear!) last night.

*If I were the lawyer advising Amazon, I would insist on this. Also making sure I hadn't done anything to the kindle software.
