A lot of the devices we use in the kitchen (Thermomix, microwaves, dishwashers, coffeemakers etc) use complete operating systems and embedded computers nowadays, often with internet connectivity for who knows what. So. Will we soon see mandated fingerprint readers for age verification or will a simple switch with "18+" be sufficient to continue to cook and clean? ;)

#SarcasmButOnlyHalf #AgeVerification

@jwildeboer Yeah, great. Next thing you know our microwaves will have to take pictures and submit them online through -Error: hax0r network intercept; all your data are belong to us- for verification...

I keep thinking they'll come to their senses and realize this just isn't a thing that can ever work, but even if they do, who knows how much insanity they'll force on us first before they do. And that's a big if these days...
