Where are the hackers when you need them?
My OctoPrint server runs on one of these (previous homeowners left it lying around), but I completely nuked Android and installed the Armbian distro for the Inovato Quadra (itself just a carefully sourced and rebranded TV box). It was tedious though, and I'd never buy one for that purpose when there are dedicated SBCs.

Definitely not unkillable tho
installing your own OS and/or bootloader is a pain and most of the time unfeasable. And that's the only way to safely kill software based backdoors.
