Not only should this be illegal, some of the underlying efforts should put people in jail.
I’m old enough that if my tv starts playing shit when it’s paused i will shoot it
whew, thanks roku! for a awhile there i thought i might use one of your products. no longer a thought.
They sell their TVs at a loss because they anticipate making money back via advertising, so don’t feel bad about buying a cheap 4k TV. It literally costs them money!*
*As long as you don’t connect it to the internet for some dumb reason
The forced arbitration EULA, ads on the homescreen, and prevention of installing your own apps didn’t already convince you?
Yes, patent it. Then nobody else can do it!
Yeah that’s best case scenario at this point. But after they forced users to agree to a new agreement with their remote control or no longer be able to use their Roku/TV I sort of doubt they have our best interests in mind.
Nah, they’ll sell the licensing rights for others to do it.
Have to squeeze every possible fraction of a cent of potential revenue out. How else are you supposed to maintain infinite growth?
This is at the point where just not displaying ads at every corner is becoming a viable business plan

I honestly thought that not many people really cared for Roku anyway. I’ve never a Roku device and never will now.
This wouldn’t fit with the gdpr, right?
Or maybe it’s completely unrelated idk
