Thanks... I think I'll toggle that one too.

EDIT: It would be irresponsible of me to not point out that there is an inherent security risk here, if you care. If you happen to use a public charger that happens to be a data stealing device, then it can auto-connect and copy everything off of your reader, including all of your API access tokens for Pocket, the Kobo store, etc. In general, if you're plugging into strange USB ports, you should use a charge-only cable without data pins connected, but having to confirm before connecting is actually a useful security feature.
