Own a Roku TV or streaming device? You're about to see a lot more ads on your home screen - eviltoast

Ugh. Roku was one of the platforms with fewer ads.

  • Roku will be adding more ads to the home screens of its devices and TVs in the near future.
  • The ads will be interactive and ‘shoppable’ and will cover a range of industries, including restaurants and cars.
  • Roku already has a significant amount of ads on its home screen, and it is unclear if users will be able to change their preferences for the new ads.

    I sure as fuck hope not lol. I don’t think my TV has that capability, even if it wanted to. If I don’t give it access to my shit, its just a big-ass monitor lol.
