...Of interest is the Amazon Silk browser which uses a revolutionary 'Cloud accelerated' Amazon Web Services AWS server (essentially a web proxy server), which will record your browsing history and no doubt will sell this information on.
Would you give up your privacy in the surveillance web architecture that is constantly being implemented i.e such as social networking companies such as Facebook (a company having links from In-q-tel - a CIA venture capital Fund) that also wants to record your browsing history as well, for a cheap tablet computer? (which probably costs more to manufacture than they are selling it for)
Too late. If your own a phone, a cell phone, a library card, credit card, bank account,
access the internet, went to school, or use any other service that requires somebody else to provide the service, then your information has being recorded. Short of going completely off the grid, you're going to leave a data trail. Accept it and take the appropriate measures. Like, not to leave any "exploitable" data (real name, address, ss#, etc.) in public forums.
The fact is that the information is being sold mainly to marketing and data collection agencies like ChoicePoint. I don't think NSA or Homeland Security really cares about your choice of bottled water, storage, or flashlights for the next disaster.
