Just create a regular account. You can still keep WiFi off. And if you decide you want to buy eBooks from Kobo, you can do so. But if you are too paranoid then you won't be able to buy eBooks from any shop. So it's public domain andor creative commons unless you get eBooks from friends and/or family who don't mind sharing with you. But if you are going to the point of actually stealing then that would not be good.

It could be that some of these people who do not want to have any usage sent back is afraid that they will get in trouble for reading stolen eBooks. It could be this is all a ruse for stealing eBooks.
