It is a decent article, if you whitelist enough of the site for it to render.

This got me to look through my Insignia FireTV. Found some new settings to disable since the last time I did so.
I don’t mind the Fire, it allows sideloaded installs, so I mostly use my own software. The processor, ram, and storage space are quite good. It performs well, looks good, and its loud. (Cops recently showed up at my door with a noise complaint.) Plus, its fukin huge and only cost like $200.
I do intend to continue to use the FireTV as such. I put it on an isolated network, but I’ve not done any traffic filtering with it. I could look into firewalling it and blocking dns and tracking data. I did some web searching today, and all I came up with was a list of the same settings I just configured. No list of shit to block.
It sure sounds like Gamer’s Nexus and that 1stLevel guy are continuing to test other models. I’ll be watching for them to get around to Fire stuff.
I found a good video from that team. Not very detailed, but it was honest content, well produced.
Their website would probably be better if I wasn’t blocking half of their resources.
