My Roku shows ads on its home screen. Do you have an older model?

Even my Roku remote control has ads: the Netflix, Disney, Hulu, and Sling shortcut buttons that can’t be reprogrammed.

They are not clearly ads, for most people they are features. As I’m visiting lots of hotels, my main criteria for watching TV there is if there’s a Netflix button or not on the remote.
