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.

    The FAIR Act prohibits mandatory arbitration agreements for employment, consumer, antitrust, or civil rights disputes. The FAIR Act also protects the rights of individuals and small businesses to participate in joint, class, or collective actions related to such disputes.

          Yeah so it has passed the house but the Senate hasn’t voted on it and therefore the President hasn’t signed it and it isn’t law?

              Dated 03/21/2022. It’s been almost exactly two years since this motion. It’s not going anywhere. Government sucks.

                You never know, but if you stay cynical, stay beaten down, then definitely nothing is going to change.

                Call your house representative member. Let them know you know of the existence of this, and would like to see it move forward.

                If everyone did that, instead of just posting on Reddit/Lemmy, they’d see change.

                  You are completely correct. Before I do that, I would need to read the whole charter, to make sure they didn’t sneak anything nefarious into it as they like to do. But then, yes, calling the reps should help some. Governments still suck, though. Most are no longer for the people en mass. Still, though, while governments may suck, they are made of people, and still have a people’s heart, even if it has to be helped to grow a few sizes.
