Well what were you expecting? This is like when people install GrapheneOS on Pixels, because it’s still the best platform to have a Google-free device.
It’s entirely possible that someone wants to buy a Kindle because of it being a great device, but not want to be tied to Amazon’s data mining exercises and/or buy books from them because of their behaviour as a publishing company.
I think he’s trying to point out that if someone were that concerned with trying to not be data mined by Amazon, they wouldn’t have an Amazon account to be able to order a Kindle in the first place.
If you actually read the OP article, they specify that there aren’t any other ebook readers available in their region, and that they could use it without connecting it to their Amazon account, or even to the internet at all.

Why? I wrote about how to use a Kindle without tying it to Amazon. Kinda hard buying one anywhere else but from Amazon…
Then check the verb in your title. Using is not making. And ‘Kindle’ is used like Kleenex, as a generic term for eBook readers.
