afaik not only adobe but also other devices do this ... (which is why i 
will never buy an ebook from one of the big ones ... in fact none at all 
till I know for sure the reading process will not be tracked)

the next step is that they adapt the content to your reading speed and 
how long you stay on a page

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Formula-Algorithms-Solve-Problems-Create/dp/0753541688/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1413531702&sr=1-1

but better not buy it at amazon as they are the masters of tracking your 
personal live
