Cory Doctorow’s ‘Unauthorized Bread’ is about exactly that scenario.
Comment on How I hacked my washing machine

TIL washers now have WiFi connectivity. Inching ever closer to the dystopic cyberpunk era where you really can hack everything in sight.

I saw this when I had to get new machines 7-8 years ago. However they were an extra like $300 for each machine. wtf.
I would kill for some sort of audio out or usb, but even better would be Zigbee/z-wave/thread, and you can do it for less than $20 in parts

Only a few more years until I can overclock my couch!

You can get smart couches right now.

Yes, but a couch doesn’t stop functioning as a couch if the smart functions stop working.

Neither does a smart washing machine.
