Solutions to that posted here last February -
If the only wifi is from your home router - block with firewall rules in your home router. Presumes your home router is running Linux (many are).

If the Kindle is mobile - block with firewall rules in the Kindle.

I do not recall that anyone made an "install_*_.bin" for this change, you will need SSH access to your kindle.

Search February for "iptables"
