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.

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.
