No ned to pirate. Just send your ebooks through Calibre to remove DRM and put them on your privacy friendly* reader. Maybe don't buy them all from Amazon in the future.
* may need some work. PocketBook doesn't track you, Kobo is pretty good too, Onyx must be debloated to not send telemetry (like any Android device), Amazon devices are Android too?
Can you point me to a good guide to set up calibre to remove drm?
This is the method I use for my Kindle (and some Google Books) purchases.
