Don't let your Kindle phone home

I wonder if you can keep your PDF files on a google drive instead of on the device itself.
Also do these Kindle devices have a microSD card? I know some android devices do. Will Amazon delete files from a microSD?

Anyway, good luck. I have a kindle somewhere around the house, probably dead and not used in years, so I don't recall if it has microSD card.

No microUSB card.

Not sure a google drive will work. But might be able to do a Calibre server to download and then open the file - apparently open documents are not deleted.

Thanks for floating options. It might just be best for me to return it and get a Kobo - there are now wireless charging cases, so I think I can get a nearly identical (in function) eReader.

I just find it absurd. Not even the Draconian iOS overlords actual DELETE content on our iPhones and iPads once you have them on your devices.

EDIT: adding calibre cloud idea.
