Creating an account with a false email and then turning wifi off to perform any other operation offline is enough. Yes this is true, thank you pointing that and this definitely should be documented on a potential wiki page for new users who want to protect their privacy.

There's NOTHING TO PROTECT! I use one of my real e-mail addresses and I've had zero problems. Thinking that you need to protect yourself is PARANOIA.

I chose to modify the database mainly because I do want to use wifi and I don't want to sign the EULA for ethical reasons. This latest statement should be enough so I don't have to justify my choices further. There are other minor reasons why I chose it that I already explained and I'm tired to repeat it again and again.

How are you going to buy eBooks? If you are not going to buy eBooks, where are you going to get them? You give more information to any store when you buy eBooks then you do registering a Kobo Reader.
