VPN in this sense is just a glorified proxy. The VPN provider can see all your traffic, and do with it what they want - including logging. Anyone with half a bit of common sense wouldn't use it, but sure if it enables you to watch what you want on the iPlayer.......

They mention on the site that it doesn't work on 1st gen, but maybe the firestick with Alexa is considered 2nd gen. I have a first gen firestick on my bedroom TV, but will be upgrading it for a 4K as the first gen has slowed considerably (I suspect on purpose due to Amazon updates)
