The point of page turns is the detail, not specifically anything.
I once borrowed "Mein Kampf" (in German) on my friend's library card.
(I didn't make it very far, it's boring.)
Generally, I'd trust libraries not to do anything with that.
Buying it commercially I'd probably end up getting spammed with offers for high capacity magazines (and I don't mean the kind you read).
My point was to make people aware of the state of things.
I'm not particularly picking on B&N.
Personally, I would object mostly to them wasting my bandwidth, storage and processor cycles.
On Windows 11 I just got rid of "SysMain".

Well, it does it ineptly. It changes the performance of hotkeys (like Shift-Alt-Letter) so that it takes 3-4 seconds to react. That's intolerable.
Remember the talking paper clip in Windows Office? That's what AI will bring us.
