but now that Roku has pop up ads for simply moving around the app menu

Huh? I have 3 Roku Ultras, a Roku Stick, and a Roku TV and none of them do that. Have you gone into the Roku settings menu recently and checked your advertising settings?

Nah, they're doing A/B testing currently for their next several waves of ads. I think (but don't quote me on this) I read that in the new EULA.

That sucks. If I can't control the ads with settings, dns fuckery, or firewalling then I guess I'll leave their ecosystem.

Indeed. I'm saving up for a dumb tv with an HTPC, and hopefully will get it deployed before that nonsense comes my way.
