Imagine that. You not only paid for the refrigerator, but also the electricity and the internet access. And it uses all of that stuff to display ads to you. You're literally paying for every ad it shows you.

You not only paid for the refrigerator, but also the electricity and the internet access.

That's a good point actually. You can eliminate these ads by taking it off the Wi-Fi.

Why you'd connect it to the internet in the first place is a mystery to me
