I'm interested in how many people would like to join me in a class action l--suit on roku. Bricking my television with their new dispute resolution terms that you cannot bypass. Therefore, making your TV u bought with your hard-earned money. Useless, I've contacted lawyers and we'll be getting back with them next week. My laws--t will also include Tc l because they are the manufacturer of my television. They must give us away through the television to disagree and continue to use our television. Because they don't. It's illegal therefore I am Taking action against them.
Good luck. You're going to need it.

It's that kind of response that allows these companies to do anything they want. A class action suit is usually taken on a contingency basis. If OP succeeds in gettng someone to accept this suit, there's a very good chance that they can get policies changed so these companies can't force you to agree with them "or else", like this one did in bricking the tvs running their programming.

Just being realistic. IMHO the chance of this ever being resolved the way you want are slim and none. For example, computer software. Don't agree to the terms? You can't install and use it. As I've said before this kind of terms of use is pretty much standard. So, good luck.

But there are options when you talk about computer software. When a company renders equipment like a television that you bought completely unusable, so they can force their anti-litigation agenda, that is against the law. There was nothing in the packaging of the television that warned consumers that one day, "Roku programming company might decide to brick your new tv. We have no idea when that will be, but just so you know....." And since you used the example of a computer software, what if you agreed to their terms when you first bought it, then the software company did just this...one day, out of the blue, changed it to something you now longer agree to? They just turned your $3000 computer into garbage can bling.
Consumers DO have rights, you know. That is exactly what the BBB, FTC and FCC is about...protecting the CONSUMER from fraudulent practices, just like this one. But if everybody just sighs, tosses the tv and buys a new one, or agrees to their whims, you won't for long.
