Paperwhite issue
My Kindle Paperwhite has become very sensitive to moisture, I live in a "wet season" part of the world and this year it has been ongoing.
There does not appear to be a fix, just wait for it to dry out so I'm looking for a prevention.

Drop it in a shoe box and add a bunch of those silica packets
Those usually comes with shoes or other stuff in packages, you know what I am talking about?

How so?

You might try a capacitative stylus to see if that yields more consistent response than using your finger - IOW maybe it is related to skin moisture and not the Kindle.
