Report it to the FTC, the Better Business Bureau, your state ATT General, Congressmen and women.  Do not let these criminal companies get away with it by just complaining on their community board.  Regulating these companies is the ONLY way to stop this mess and you won't get that without making your voice heard!  People, you have a legitimate right to access your own television.  Start fighting back or you'll forever be dealing with things like this one bricking your televisions!  
It takes only 5 minutes to file a legitimate complaint against these companies misusing their powers to force you to accept their terms. 
Write one, just one simple complaint and then copy/paste it into every avenue you can get the word out against these illegal practices.    Take a stand!   There is power in numbers!  The more voices are lifted, the bigger chance we'll have to be heard!

My remote will not agree or use * Did you get the issue resolved ?

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.

I'd call this a breach of contract.  We bought the device now we can no longer use it?

Have you resolved this yet?  I try to agree to terms but nothing happens.

How did you fix this?  I’ve tried restarting, disconnecting, using app,  but still nothing.

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.
