Hot Take:

Looks like Roku's been on the cybersecurity treadmill again, and hackers just kicked up the incline. With over half a million accounts getting the unwanted personal trainer treatment, it's a digital "no pain, no gain" scenario. But hey, at least they're getting two-factor authentication as a consolation prize, which is kind of like getting a gym membership after you've already pulled a muscle.
