Nice sharing
I think the best way to pass all legal issue of fire stick is
jailbreak firestick.

There's no such thing as a "jailbroken" firestick.
Amazon don't do anything to prevent side-loading of Kodi (or anything else) on the devices, they just don't have us in their app-store.

If you could only install via the Windows store and you did something "unofficial" to it to allow you to install from elsewhere then that's jailbreaking.
On the firestick you don't need to alter the stick in any way to install stuff, hence no jailbreaking. On an apple device you do, hence it can be jailbroken. Sideloading isn't jailbreaking.
The closest an android device can come to jailbreaking is rooting it, but even that's not quite the same thing.
And in the case of most versions of windows, Microsoft don't give a damn if you install directly rather than via the Windows store. There's only one version of Win10 where the store is the only option, so that's basically the only one that could be jailbroken as all the others effectively ship jailbroken as standard.
