Kindles are sold in physical locations – at least in the EU, many Kindle owners got their device from a local electronics shop. You don't necessarily have to order them from Amazon. Then, when you unbox it, there is no requirement to register with Amazon or even connect to the internet at all.
This is a complete whataboutism but you gave Amazon a lot more information when you purchased the kindle from them.
I think the answer is Amazon should add an option to turn this off.
