I can't tell if this is satire or not, and that is more than a little concerning.

The article is satire, but it's certainly inspired by real initiatives from Roku.

With every article I read about Roku and their current trajectory, they, as a company, remind me more and more of Veridian Dynamics from the show Better Off Ted. Soon, Roku will be selling an office chair to companies that helps keep their staff on task by not letting them get too comfortable.

Wow, I really didn't expect someone to beat me to the punch on a Better Off Ted reference. Respect
