You may fall on the more trusting end of the spectrum, others might fall on the less trusting end often with good reason.

Well unfortunately you can't get it started without registering it. If you don't want it to connect to wifi then just turn off wifi on the device after registering then side load your books. I don't know why someone would buy this more expensive Kindle if they didn't want to use the features and the updates. Doesn't make sense but whatever.
