Suspiciously right before users were forced to sign a new TOS, agreeing to two layers of arbitration, if they wanted to use their TV or streaming box.
Yeah, I wonder how much weight that new arbitration agreement holds in light of this breach. I feel like you can't just fuck up with your customers' data, force them to agree to not sue you, and then tell them that you fucked up with their data. Those users agreed to a contract where they likely had critical information withheld from them in bad faith.
The contract was always in bad faith. EULAs are all in bad faith.
They know damn well everything they put in there is unenforceable and do it anyways.
