Personal Documents & Privacy

buyer12 · 02-11-2010, 09:44 PM

I've been browsing mobileread for a while, just wanted to chime in to clear some things up.

Piggybacking on this thread, what exactly gets shared about your interactions with personal documents (non-Amazon files)?

I've been reading deeper into usbnetwork as well, to figure this out, but would rather not muck around if I can avoid it.

Welcome to MobileRead, buyer12.

I don't know the answer to your question, but someone will step in soon that does.

Fantastic, thanks for the welcome!

Just want to see the raw data passed back about personal documents. If I need to clarify, please let me know

I think you stated your question very well......but it is late and you may have to wait a while for answers.

Hang in there.

If you look deep into the output posted in that thread, you will see some of the key data points, such as

Title
Author,
last page read,
last access of book,
if the book is a sample,
is the book encrypted,
is the book new(first time read),

Dont apply that hack, you will destroy your kindle. im waiting for the newest stable update to redo the hack. 2.3.3 was just released, so il give it a week to see how it pans out and then Il try to work on it.

To apply this hack you need the usbNetwork hack, as you must change the showlog file.
