Technically, since Kobo supports ADE, you can load books from ADE directly to the Kobo without removing the DRM, but it would be pretty silly to do it that way instead of just syncing the book directly from Kobo if you don't care about DRM.

Does Kobo plus check pages read/books finished as a way to pay authors whose books are on the Kobo plus program like Amazon does?

It's based on reading time.

The wifi is permanently switched off on my Libra 2, and all my other ereaders. I don't have wifi in the house, so there would be nothing to connect to unless it tapped into an unsecured neighbour's network!

Presumably this means there's no way they can track me, unless by mind control!
