validiarimFresh dystopian hell from Samsung fridges with ads.
Anyone who bought into this crap kind of deserves it at this point.
I keep my appliances dumb AF because I have half a chance at repairing them should something break.
There are also fewer points of failure.
Cassano. nobody deserves to be scammed.
yes they should have known better and did not, but they did not deserve it.
Much like the law should allow people to cancel any subscription created online, online, the law should mandate clear times when and where advertisement is allowed with opt out options.
If Samsung wants to advertise to me on a product, that should have to pay me $10/month to send those adverts.
They use that $10/mo to offset the $10/mo they want to charge you to continue using your fridge. Appliances As A Service or something.
The way things are going …if you want a new fridge at an affordable price the ones with ads will be your only choice. This is peak late stage capitalism with no consumer protections or anti monopoly practices in place
Yeah, but some people didn’t opt into it. I’ve worked on a lot of new construction in my state and they buy these appliances for every new apartment complex they build. I know people could choose a different apartment, but most people don’t have any other option and saying “no” to a decent apartment because of a refrigerator isn’t a luxury people can afford.
Left as Center“Incentives” for the purchasing party.
Lmao, where I live that’s par for the course.
Ads subsidise the upfront cost to the developers. Try buying a dumb TV.
