How did they lock them down?

Pushed a software update that disabled third party launchers and disallowed disabling future software updates.

Oh, shit!

My Xiaomi Mi Box S 4K doesn't auto-update because there's not enough storage space left.

No idea if Xiaomi have pushed any Amazon-level evil updates since last update though.

All I know is, 3rd-party launchers changed my life for the better, and I don't want it to change anytime soon.
