Roku is removing a loophole used by porn providers to target users on the streaming platform. The ban will block Pornhub and similar XXX services from offering their channels on the platform. Porn services appear as private channels, which are also used by developers for testing purposes, allowing them to bypass approval needed to display channels in the Roku store to users.
Roku has come under fire in the past for its private channels, due to illegal content being easily accessed. Roku’s announcement to remove the loophole could, however, send many users flocking to other smart TV platform providers. Amazon’s Fire TV and Google’s Android TV platform allow users to watch porn and do so anonymously because these services have a browser.
