Wrong way to hold a Kindle?
I download my Kindle books via my desktop computer's wi-fi.

Is it possible to grasp the Kindle in a manner such that I would retard the downloading process? Is it possible for me to put my thumb in the wrong place, thereby accidentally blocking the Kindle's antenna?

Thanks!

There was the so-called "antennagate" thing with an old iPhone.

But tbh I think we would have heard about it by now if it were a thing

Maybe if you're in the bath. Holding the Kindle underwater.
