Roku's "deeply embedded" new feature with continue watching on the home screen is a privacy violation and much more. I really don't need for my kids to see what the adults have been watching every time they turn on the TV! And I've told every provider I have not to share my information, so where is Roku getting this information? They're violating every privacy policy from every provider and probably their own. And they're showing kids adult content!

Their excuse is "it's deeply embedded" into the operating system. This is pure BS, they added it a week ago, they can take it back down (or make it optional) within a few minutes. Instead they're just ignoring all the people who hate it and who's privacy they're violating!

I personally think if they don't do something about this that they need a nice class action about their privacy violations. Just my own opinion.
