Update server names/IPs

Do the amazon servers pushing kindle updates have known dns names or ips? I am thinking I would like to block these at my router as secondary insurance against updates.

Thanks

I think that won't work as DNS blocking is overwritten by VPN or network connectivity a kindle uses.

P.S You should be able to temporarily stop updates by filling up all the empty space on you device with files that way there is no way update gets downloaded and this actually works except device gets marginally slow.
