To add extra insult, Roku use linux on their boxes https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roku_OS
Fuck Roku, they won’t let me set the dns server to my pi hole
“The consumer’s kids could change that setting and the consumer wouldn’t be able to change it back to a valid dns server”
Rakuten != Roku
Ah, my bad, I read the "A" as an "O". I've never heard of rakuten.
Roku is really locked down, which allows them to control what users can do. This means DRM is more powerful on Roku Linux, than on desktop Linux. Same is true for Android. Not allowing Linux makes sense from the rightholders standpoint (just like it makes sense for me to pirate).
