You have an Amazon account, dude. Amazon already has your fucking information. ALL OF IT. Including things like card numbers, addresses, phone numbers, and your purchasing and viewing habits.

It pulled wifi settings from another Amazon device that you have, most likely.

It also downloaded your fucking information when it accessed the internet.

Do you really think there's some fuckin' rando sitting there doing nothing in an Amazon warehouse until the moment you order this thing, when they just plug it into a server and download your information to it?

No, it connected to your wifi and downloaded it.

Welcome to how almost every single electronic device operates.

If you're worried about miners or bots you shouldn't be purchasing invasive shit to plug into your home network. In fact, you shouldn't even have a home network.
