I think grandma and grandpa have seen more in life than you give them credit for - but yes, I agree, no one should have R rated things pop up automatically and we don’t need the kiddos to see this.

Yes, it boils down to keeping the main screen rated G. The month of June is challenging these days everywhere you go. Our veterans get one day of celebration each year while another particular group demands an entire obnoxious month.

Keep in mind that we are not Roku's customers. We are their product.

Greetings, Community users!

We appreciate you for bringing this to our attention and we'd be more than happy to look closely into this matter and find you the best resolution possible. 

If you are to see any offensive ads or any other inappropriate ads, could you please let us know in which specific channel this was being prompted?

In the meantime, if this is prompted on your Home screen, we suggest referring to our support article on How to Hide Ads and providing us with a photo of the specific ad.

Thanks,
Carly

Oh thats exactly it!!..  and we can decide to chose other platforms that are not ROKU.  In the end we are willing products, and we should remove ourselves from becoming their product if they are not investing into this product compared to others that would.

I have to ask, what does it take to become a Streaming Expert not a Roku employee? If you are like me whose has been around a few decades, you might be an expert, but more likely a liberal, whose has no problem with Capitalism.

I think "levels" are based on how many posts and kudos you have.
