Roku ruined my tv now only Roku works and channel input on tv is disabled

If I knew Roku was such a trashy manipulative business I never would have purchased this internet spying tv takeover device. If I unplug Roku from my TV I have nothing, no channel input (Roku disabled it). I now have a black screen TV. Do I have to have 2 TV's? One for air antenna and another for Roku. I couldn't be more ticked off over this garbage device. Now I need to buy a new TV? Because there is no way to disconnect Roku.

And zero support, buying there device is not enough for them to provide support? Is there any way turn off, disable get rid of Roku once it's installed, I see no way.

Use your TV's remote control to select your desired input.  Look for a button like: input, source, etc. Or it might be on a menu.

If that doesn't completely solve the problem, then turn off One Touch Play (On Roku, go to Settings -> System -> Control other devices -> 1-touch play)
