No.
It will only destroy the ability of the jailbreak to self re-install.

It is replacing the full image of the main O.S. (normal Amazon update process) that destroys the "jailbreak" (our developer's signature certificate).

If, at the time that update happens, the code to self re-install the certificate is not present, then the certificate does not get installed in the updated main O.S. image.

It requires TWO actions - in a SPECIFIC ORDER - to 'destroy the jail break'.

1) 'Reset (to factory defaults)'
2) A full image update from Amazon.

Note:
The jail break bridge code can self-recover from:
2 then 1
2 only
