There is a checkbox under Tools/Options/Annotations which has a checkbox beside "Display the passages that are most frequently highlighted by other Kindle users.". I did not have it checked so I tried checking it and it made no difference. Amazon support said it should be unchecked to not display the passages but that might not stop the download from happening just in case I might want to display those passages later. The suggestion was that I could disable automatically backup your device annotations and last page read at Amazon to disable the download of other's popular annotations. Nothing like talking to someone who is working from a script to get aggravating.
