Please don't spread "fake news." According to several press reports, Bezoz's phone was most likely hacked via a malicious WhatsApp message.
Since you can't install WhatsApp on eInk Kindles, this particular method can't be used to install malware on Kindles. While all internet-enabled devices can be remotely hacked, the actual risks for eInk Kindle users are relatively low.

On the contrary, current eInk Kindle models can't be jailbroken without hardware modifications, which makes it very difficult to install malware
on them.
