How do I tell if my info has been stolen from Roku?
I just saw on the news that Roku has had a data breach. How can I tell if I've been a victim?

The breach was not Roku itself. It was a hack from somewhere else, and hackers tried using the stolen login/password info on Roku, and were successful in some cases. A good reason to NEVER use the same password across services!

"IF" this information is correct, 15,000 accounts were breached to include name/password/account info(i.e. payment). I also would like to know if my account was one of the breached.
Roku did email the recommendation to change and strengthen your password

If they detected unusual activity on accounts that matched known stolen email/passwords, then you would have heard from them by now.
