    Pretty sleazy of Amazon to blacklist the app. What's the worst part, they're not just blocking people from future installation. They're wiping out the installation for those who have it already. That's incredibly invasive!

    Firestopper fills the bill for the time being.

    yeah, just makes u think? whats next?..... really though balcklisting apps by name, like if their point was to inconviennce people sure but its trivial to rename and repackage an app. literally takes minutes.

    You're right... 1. Easy to repackage with a new name. 2. What's next? They may decide Kodi needs to be extinguished.

    I'm definitely going to hold off on future updates until I determine it's incredibltly important.
