Don't give them ideas!! But I've blocked any update for my shield maybe two years ago, so it's locked in a older version of Android, it works fine and I hope this doesn't change ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

They don't need me to get that idea. I might block their update too good tip

Don't forget about the playstore app updates, these should be set to not autoupdate.

Currently the android TV Launcher app is what shows you the ads on the homescreen. You can easily uninstall this apps update if you upgrade it accidentally.
