If I had to guess: side load F-Droid onto the Fire Stick and install Termux from there.

Then you could SSH into a cloud computing environment and work off that.

Termux has an entire package repository, community, and package maintainers. I'm a maintainer.

It's basically a distribution of Linux userspace so natively tools are available, along with compilers and the like.

Very useful, and will probably keep me on Android forever.

The attacks were lower tech than that. Just social engineering/phishing/sim-swapping. Things that could be done from any device without even a terminal.
No need for cloud computing. My first CS semester was done with Termux, a cheap android tablet and a Bluetooth keyboard.
Any number of cloud services will give you a terminal on a web page to access your VM. You don't need to touch the hardware if you have a web browser.
