    That’s my point. Right now, it’s an option —only to seed its installation as a future luxury in the collective subconscious. 🤌🏼 Then, when they’re on every gawdamned appliance, those that publicly decry the fuckery will get downvoted by the mouthbreathin’ masses and largely ignored. Mark my words. It’s a tale as old as time.

      We can agree to disagree on this one. I simply do not believe all fridges will be fixed with screens that shows ads nonstop. That is very unrealistic. It will be an option that people can choose, but oldfashioned fridges will always be available for people who prefer or can’t afford the ones with screens. There are no words to be marked here. This is how the real world works. What you’re describing is a dystopian fiction where every country is the same and no regulations exist and everyone was access to the same luxuries. That isn’t the real world.

        dystopian fiction

        … You’re not paying much attention, nor have you been around long, I presume. 🙃

          Or maybe I’m just aware that there is a world outside of the US where people can’t afford smart fridges in the future no matter how much the market pushes them and that there are unions that will seek to regulate them running ads nonstop if it comes to it.

          I have no doubt that people with money will most likely buy these things in the future if they are made with the costumer in mind instead of advertisers, but the poor people and the landlords who house them won’t install smart fridges in their apartments anytime soon.

          Maybe you’re the one who hasn’t paid attention or been around for that long.
