A dedicated topic seems necessary as there is a lot to say and it looks like you will need a lot of detailed explanations to understand what I say and my ethical choices. A lot of things has already been proved in this topic and the other one from 2011 about Kobo's data policy and practices, but you don't seem to understand well (did you read the other topic ?). As I said I would be happy to explain you with further details and debate, because I don't know everything and I may make mistakes on some specific points. Maybe you will end up proving what you say is true. Let's play won't we ?
Let's just finish here with this book question, so we don't have to talk about it anymore in the other topic. One can legally download a lot of free domain classic books from this very forum or a bunch of other websites. I also like to download creative commons books or GPL books. These are free licenses that respect copyright, maybe you don't know it yet after all. I also read other documents than books on my device.
Thank you for worrying about my privacy when I buy books on the web (this is what you're doing right ?), but I can handle it by myself. As you noticed I am very cautious. Indeed I prefer buying paper books at my local bookstore than on the web. Fortunately there are still some editors that sell ebooks while respecting their users privacy.
Will you stop thinking I am a dangerous pirate now ? I doubt it because this is already the second time I explain you this. I've just put more details. I won't ask you to stop thinking I am a psychopath, because you seem to really hold on to it.
I must just say I will probably not be able to post here anymore for a few days at least. Don't think I'm escaping ok ?

I was not saying you'd pirate eBooks. I was curious where you'll be getting eBooks given you won't give Kobo your email address.
