Needs a lot of permission (including the dangerous one : READ_PHONE_STATE)

It means the app has the ability to read the device ID (e.g. IMEI or ESN) and phone number.

Commands

adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.samsung.android.slinkcloud

To put it back:

adb shell cmd package install-existing com.samsung.android.slinkcloud

Every removal listed here is per-user only: the system image is untouched, and the restore command puts the app back from the copy already on the device. Nothing is downloaded.

This is not the directory. Here we say what a package is in general; what happens on your particular television is on your model's entry, and that one wins. The same package can be dead weight on one set and hold the home screen up on another.
