Did your Roku TV decide to strong arm you into giving up your rights or lose your FULLY FUNCTIONING WORKING TV? Because mine did.

It doesn’t matter if you only use it as a dumb panel for an Apple TV, Fire stick, or just to play your gaming console. You either agree or get bent.

    What even the point of making laws and regulations if corporate can just force you to waive all your rights?

      Whats the point of laws when they just get in the way of corporate interests and exploitation.

        and by the time the court throws it out the TV I paid for has been disabled for months and I’m out a ton of money and time. A lot of people will just agree because defending your rights in this country is very expensive and cumbersome. They’re counting on this idea.

      Because the laws and regulations have been influenced by lobbying by large corporations to suit them best.

        I still can’t comprehend why American just accepting that “lobbyists” are a normal thing.

        Isn’t that literally bribery in broad daylight to influence laws making decisions? And the fact that a corporate can “sponsor” politicians. You’re supposed to making those laws to keep the corporate in line, not taking their handout.

        Are there any other countries with the same “lobbying” practice?
