What really fascinates me is that Walmart sells these.
That seems to introduce a tremendous liability on their part. Were I a streaming provider, buying one of these and seeing my content seems like a slam-dunk lawsuit. Do discovery, multiply by units sold - payday!
I don't see how they could claim ignorance or avoid at least partial blame, they sold me the box no matter how they got it.
