Roku welcomes conspiracy theorist Alex Jones and Infowars (Update: Jones removed)

Even with this unwelcome news, I still prefer Roku to any of the other streaming platforms. AppleTV, Google Play, Amazon Fire, they all play dirty tricks to lock in users and exclude hardware and/or content from each other. Roku is the only big platform I know if where I can use anyone’s content (except Apple’s), in a neutral environment where everyone maintains their own streaming apps. Roku’s cross-channel search is great too.

Now if Roku were to preinstall the InfoWars channel on new devices, or add it to their “recommended channels” list, I’d have a major problem with that and be contacting them to express my displeasure.
