Roku abruptly requires user consent to new terms, including arbitration, to regain device access
• Roku disabled users' TVs and streaming devices until they consented to new dispute resolution terms, preventing access until agreed to.
• Terms include forced arbitration agreement preventing users from suing or joining lawsuits against Roku.
• New "Informal Dispute Resolution" section requires bringing legal complaints to Roku lawyers first for "Meet-and-Confer".
• Change made last fall but only recently took effect, notifying users by disabling devices until consent given.
• Users can opt out by mailing written notice within 30 days, but must move quickly before window closes.
