The majority of people with a Kindle aren't tech savvy; obfuscating their existing library may influence them to prefer purchasing new ebooks to reading what is already in their library.
I think there's value in it as a drug. I thought very creatively while on it, and wrote down a lot of notes for my fiction writing.
The downside for me was that it made it very difficult to motivate myself to exercise and improve my life. I stopped and was going to the gym 3* a week shortly after.
I haven't smoked in over a year, and will probably only do it on special occasions or with friends, if at all.
It's a wonderful drug for sharing experiences, thinking creatively, or getting outside of a rut in your thinking.
But it is not nearly as harmless as people say it is, and I'm glad I've given it up.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions :)
I'm a much better person now, and have mostly kicked the depression and anxiety (even though they show up sometimes).
I also have Firefox with Javascript turned on, in case I need to browse a website I trust with Javascript.
Most other users need safety restraints such as a GUI. Doesn't stop you from using minimum viable product as a philosophy.
