I just assumed that setting carried over to the newer firmware with the new home screen, but I can't find it anywhere.
The option you are thinking about is on the "Energy saving and privacy" page. Somewhere along the way, it stopped turning off the display of Stats and Awards. Before that, even when it was off, it still did the tracking in the background and database. It just didn't display it, or send anything to Kobo.

Nor can I even find a way to access awards to view them. But I patch and remove the 3rd bottom row on the home screen, and also the unused items in the main Home button so it only shows Home, My Books, My Collections, Settings and Help (and I'd removed Help if there was a patch for it, and rename Books and Collections to drop that ridiculous "My"). Maybe viewing awards is in one of those locations?

Edit: I also read just about only epub, maybe awards is no longer available for epubs?
I read a mix of epubs, sideloaded kepub and purchased kepubs. The events needed for the Awards are recorded for all types. And the one I mentioned as missing is missing for all formats.
