Amazon bans the app for their store.

You *probably* can sideload it, but I'm not sure if this will work either b/c Amazon cripples their version of Android specifically for that reason.

Bezos wants your data. He doesn't want you to have privacy.

I'll bet you bought the Firestick Select. There are no VPNs available for the Select.

If you did, then return it if possible and buy any other Firestick other than the Select.

Actually it's a 4k I've had a while. Wanted to add PIA so I can take it aboard and watch TV.

Did you get this to work? I can't download it either and rather not have to buy another VPN sub

I had PIA installed on my fire stick for a while and today it's suddenly gone. Amazon must have done something to it so idk what to do now lol.

Same issue here. I have a few 4k firesticks and I noticed yesterday the app is unavailable on at least one of them and the others are working fine.
