This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Did your Roku TV decide to strong arm you into giving up your rights or lose your FULLY FUNCTIONING WORKING TV? Because mine did.
It doesn't matter if you only use it as a dumb panel for an Apple TV, Fire stick, or just to play your gaming console. You either agree or get bent.
So Roku is also a piece of shit too eh? I knew that their device I bought wasn't great but I thought it was just a cheap one. Glad I'm creating a media PC on Linux
I'm so disappointed in Roku lately. I still have a few streaming sticks in my house and one TV (I went all in), and I'm going to slowly replace them with something else.
I have an apple tv and that is nice, but I would love a little open source player that isn't an htpc or super pricey.
What about the one sided ability to change a contract??
A year from now Roku pop up says "Click to Accept" , the text says **"this contract means you'll have to give us your first born child? ** My reasoning says if they can do one then they can do the other. There is nothing that would prevent them from adding 'fees', or 'subscriptions' or simply turning off the device. (!)
This is egregious. We bought something. In normal commerce, the contract was set in stone at that moment. The seller can't roll up 2 years later, change the contract, force you to agree before you can use your device, and then say , well maybe if you beg, you can opt out.
What if you never connect it to the internet? Surely then it’s a just a dumb TV.
Wait you're both waiving rights? Does that mean they can't sue you for copyright or anything also?
Pray they don’t alter it further
Is it even possible to like reflash certain TVs cuz it kinda seems like you may be better off buying a large ass monitor with a pi or potato PC attached.
Just do a judge trial instead of a jury trial. Lol
