Unless there is some outside requirement about the device not having WiFi (like the court order as mentioned), just buy a modern reader and don't turn on WiFi.

If this is just a privacy concern and fears that the evil device manufacturers are spying on you, it doesn't happen. I have been using ereaders for over a decade and don't use WiFi and I have NEVER had an ereader surreptitiously connect and share my personal data.

There is one reader right now (the Kobo Sage?) that has a glitch that can kick on the WiFi when messing with the settings. But that is a software error rather than a nefarious plan.
