I believe the solution for all this Amazon Kindle shenanigan is not about buying a Kobo. It's about how we do not allow corporations to determine how we protest. Responsible consumption combined with political and social activism is a more sustainable way to challenge corporate power.

Agreed. But there are eink devices (like the Kobo's) that do not require registration. Kobo's registration can be very easily "bypassed" so easy that I'd say it's a wanted feature. For me that was the key factor to go for an kobo again. (I broke my old Kobo Glo by smashing a heavy bag on it...)
