Ok, most of my "books" are text books, PDF documents and other documents I create for the Kindle. But I buy a few books from Amazon. So while I was searching through the "free" books to buy from Amazon, I found Stephen King's UR for like $4.00. I couldn't help it, I bought it.
I opened the book and began to read. It's about an English professor who buys a kindle to prove something to his girlfriend. Naturally, this Kindle is from a parallel universe or something. So when I see something with a gray dotted line under it and 24 highlighters, I thought this was something Amazon and Stephen King did just to make his book spookier. Nope, turns out that was something 24 other readers have highlighted!
I think it was cooler that King and Amazon were goofing with me.
By the way - it's a cool story. I recommend it!
Yes, you can turn off the ability to see what others highlight, and the ability to have your highlights shared with others.
