Over 15,000 hacked Roku accounts sold for 50¢ each to buy hardware

Roku has disclosed a data breach impacting over 15,000 customers after hacked accounts were used to make fraudulent purchases of hardware and streaming subscriptions.
Maybe that’s why they were trying to force their users to sign a new user agreement that wouldn’t allow users to sue them or something? I don’t recall the exact details but I remember it being very shady
The article said it had a source linking the two events, then has a post-publication addendum that Roku denies any connection.
I agree with you that the timing is suspect.
