If you're a Roku user, you may have noticed a new user agreement pop-up on your screen over the past few days. If for any reason you do not comply with this agreement, you may not be able to stream from then on.
TechCrunch I noticed that It's almost impossible to avoid signing up for a new Roku deal if you want to keep using your TV. I myself had accidentally pressed a trade the other day, assuming it was something unimportant. In fact, it was a pop-up Legally binding agreement not to sue Roku At any time in the future. Instead, the agreement forces the user to agree to forced arbitration, a different dispute resolution process maintained by many legal experts. Firms strongly favor consumers.
For businesses, the benefit of forced arbitration is that they can avoid class action lawsuits, which obviously can be very costly. Roku's new deal appears draconian and forces users to participate in what the company calls an “informal dispute resolution” process. This process requires anyone with legal concerns to contact a Roku attorney before taking any further action. As noted above, the policy also prohibits users from suing the company.
Fortunately, there's a way to cancel your Roku subscription, but it seems like a pain in the ass. The only way to avoid this unfortunate arrangement is to… Send a letter to Roku's legal team Tell them you don't want any part of this. You only have 30 days to do so, and after that, everyone who hasn't spoken will automatically be included in Roku's new legal agreement. For more information on how to do it all, You can visit Roku's website.
