Right now, there's no publicly published method for jailbreaking > 5.11firmware. Pretty much anyone who wants to JB the PW4 has to PM either me or hius07 on the 4pda.ru forums.
Consider that Amazon likely sells hundreds or even thousands of Kindles every day. Know how many PMs I get requesting JB instructions? Maybe 10 a week.
NiLuJe likely has better statistics based on his snapshots page but really, we jailbreakers are a minority.

I don’t dispute the community being small. I dispute amazon’s role in discouraging jailbreaking. I Asked him to look at the evidence and he responded with, “ what’s the point. Jailbreaking is insignificant because not a lot of people do it. “ You yourself have pointed out that amazon has been reeding up on the previous jailbreak methodologies, leaving behind evidence of their presence. They clearly care about what is going on.
