My LG Diswasher is spying on me..................
LG is Samsung’s sister company................
I buy low tech.
I don’t have these issues.
GTFO
Cool?
Realy?
It's spelled "obnoxious, annoying, intrusive, and unnecessary" but it's pronounced "cool".
If you want it, have at it. I want my refrigerator to refrigerate. The End.
Interesting. Thanks for posting. Brave New Fridge. What about ICE. AOC worried.
They do make some very pretty fridges lately, but no thanks. Appliances (like cars, phones, computers) with brains are bearing spyware, and one day could be up to something even worse.
I wonder if the fridge can recognize bullshit. I know I can.
Does it tell you what that hunk of mystery green stuff is in the back of the drawer?
I almost bought a dishwasher where you had to register and subscribe to get all the wash cycles other than basic.
Dear Lord. I can see it now. Refrigerator says I have a large cake inside. It will quit working unless I get rid of the cake.
Our fridge is Jenn Aire. Hate it! It’s not as smart as some, but all digital.
All I want is an effing fridge with a dial that has an arrow with “colder” or “warmer”. I DON’T NEED A DIGITAL MENU!
This kind of garbage reminds me that I need to disable the OS connectivity in my truck. What a useless, invasive world!
BIXBY: Don’t you think you’ve had enough beer?
ME: F’ Off, Bixby!
I love this stuff.
I cannot think of a single reason why I’d want to talk to my refrigerator.
As for the freshness thing, I handle that with a marker. I put the date the package. Problem solved.
“...Family Hub devices are not collecting personal information or tracking consumers...”
Not yet.
Great.
Another means for the government to spy on us and control us.
Big Brother can’t come close to what we’re living today.
There’s a setting to turn them off... jeeze people.
Agree
Just wish I could buy a refrigerator that would last more than 5 or 6 years like the old low tech ones did. People used to sell their old refrigerators not because they quit working, but because they had them so long they were tired of looking at them. I know a guy who still has a refrigerator from the 50’s in his basement with a keg of beer and a tap system in it. Still cooling his beer after 65 to 70 years. If some enterprising company would reintroduce a refrigerator with similar longevity I’d be willing to pay a lot more for it. Unfortunately in our throw away economy, a long lasting appliance would only hurt the company that produced it because of a much lower sales volume and I’m sure the nanny state would have it’s stupid environmental objections.
Oh hell to the no.
when I go to the kid’s house I have fun playing music on their echo, but we do not have any smart anything in our house.
Except perhaps the TV DH bought, I’m not sure sure.
But other than that, no thank you.
