EFF's E-Book Buyer's Guide to Privacy

Interesting read on the Electronic Frontier Foundation:

"e-reader technology presents significant new threats to reader privacy. E-readers possess the ability to report back substantial information about their users' reading habits and locations to the corporations that sell them. And yet none of the major e-reader manufacturers have explained to consumers in clear unequivocal language what data is being collected about them and why."

Not being tied to a single vendor was one of the reasons that made me choose the Onyx Boox...
