There is an old bypass method to allow to skip the initial forced registration on Kobo readers needed to access non-book store functions such as the web browser and other sync features.

Supposedly, this old bypass method no longer works. However, a much simpler bypass method pop-up a few months ago on Reddit:

that supposes to work on Libra 2 generation of devices.

Has anyone tried out on the new Libra Colour or Clara Colour to see if it works "out of the box" without previous sign-ins?
Using it is paranoia. Also, you have no idea if this will work come the v5 firmware. So you could lose everything when it blows up in your face.

Why do you want t do this if (as you claim) it's not paranoia (which it is)?
