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.

    Smart TVs were supposed to be better than dumb TVs.

    Now it’s the complete opposite.

    I think you’re qualified for a full refund in most regions if you disagree with the new terms.

    Send them a letter via registered mail stating that upon receipt of said letter they waive their right to waive your rights.

    My Roku TV’s been reset to factory and not allowed on the internet for a few years now. It’s a TV. It displays shit that I give it over HDMI. If you desire more than that you’re part of the problem. I work in IT and that’s why my home has physical locks, a 30 year old thermostat, and cameras I own with recordings on a DVR I own.

      In my experience, people that use the phrase “you’re part of the problem” so loosely are often the most miserable jackasses anyone ever allowed into society.

      People just want neat things. It’s not wrong to want neat things.

        It’s not wrong to think people are stupid for wanting pointlessly internet connected things either.

          Well sure, but we’re not talking about a washing machine or a refrigerator. Currently most media we watch is over the internet, so I at least don’t consider a TV with an internet connection “pointlessly” online.

            Okay, well you are free to enjoy having your device bricked whenever the company you bought it from wants to.
