    I’ve never let my kindle connect to wifi. Mostly because of the tracking shit (that I now know they definitely do) but also so Amazon doesn’t brick it with an “update”.

      You can block all their advertising, telemetry and even their software update domains with pi hole. The older readers allow you to set hardcoded DNS to your pi hole server. Not sure if the newer Kindle Fires and Paperwhites do or not.

        If supported by your router, you can redirect any errant DNS queries back to your specified DNS server.
