We have a fancy Samsung fridge with display. I was livid the first day I woke up and entered the kitchen and there was a full screen ad on the display greeting me pre-coffee.
I vowed to never buy another fancy appliance again and took it off the WiFi network.
- zx8080 3y agoI wonder would disabling a network raises its chances to need some repairs?
- willi59549879 3y agoi don't understand why people buy smart devices. with anything smart i can't know what exactly the device is doing. plus the software will most likely stop being supported. by then it is just a potential tool to being hacked
- Kluggy 3y agoMy wife really wanted the live calendar display on the fridge, which was useful. It was on an isolated WiFi network so it couldn’t communicate with any other devices in the house, but I didn’t count on ads being served directly on a $3000 device.
