Perfect - thanks for your feedback.

That means. We were blocked - but "by accident" - and additionally all applications with "ko" in name additionally.

Btw. just for brainstorming: Which popular apps do you have in mind that have "ko" in their PACKAGE_ID ? It would be evil to think, that they block entire "ko" "by accident" - but mainly hitting only kodi - as the rest no one installs ... but as we don't think evil ... that did not happen, right? :-)

So then: Dear Sony-Folks. Don't assume something is a kernel object, just cause it has "ko" somewhere in its PACKAGE_ID, imagine you had tried to load such a module (especially one with kodi's size) ...

try to install:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/tree-men-g...-download/
com.treemengames.pako2
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/kobo-books...-download/
com.kobobooks.android
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/telekom-de...-download/
de.telekom.android.dslhilfe  

 Which one of them is popular and is normally installed on TVs? :-) - you know this was a rethoric question - if you want to block kodi, but don't want to make it obvious - and are very evil, you would exactly match every "ko" in PACKAGE_ID - and afterwards say: ouhhh what an accident.

But: Don't assume evil. There was nothing in the past that Sony did evil to their customers. Therefore don't assume evil.

Hint: Sarcasm is hidden in this post.
