It's not necessarily "popups" it's a security issue. The links are not matching the main page, or are scripts or something. There is a setting somewhere you may need to change for the links to work.

Go to Manage My Content and Devices. There is … in front of each title.
In fact I don't don't see ANY real links:
1. Click on … and there is a popup, but it's actually not a separate window, not a real popup.
2. Select Download and Transfer via PC. A Different pseudo popup appears.
3. Select which Kindle to download for if you have more than one. Each instance of an App or PC/Mac program counts as a "kindle" on the drop down list.
4. The OS file browser/Save as window appears.

I don't have a problem with Waterfox and Umatrix script blocking, but there is some sort of issue about Amazon using different servers or not HTTPS for all scripts, so there are settings to change (once) in most browsers now.
