Comment on Refrigerator ads are finally here!
Nangijala@feddit.dk 1 day agoAt the end og the day, it’s all about money and most people can’t afford fridges like this. Screenless fridges won’t disappear over night either. In the same way that most people who own fridges don’t have those fancy ones that vomits ice cubes at the press of a button. It’s kinda cool, but too expensive and impractical for most people. People who can afford smart fridges and think it’s a worth while expense will buy them, but I don’t believe for a second that that is the majority of people. Not by a long shot.

That’s my point. Right now, it’s an option —only to install it as a future luxury in the collective subconscious. Then, when they’re on every gawdamned appliance, those that publicly decry the fuckery will get downvoted by the mouthbreathin’ masses and largely ignored. Mark my words. It’s a tale as old as time.

We can agree to disagree on this one. I simply do not believe all fridges will be fixed with screens that shows ads nonstop. That is very unrealistic. It will be an option that people can choose, but oldfashioned fridges will always be available for people who prefer or can’t afford the ones with screens. There are no words to be marked here. This is how the real world works. What you’re describing is a dystopian fiction where every country is the same and no regulations exist and everyone was access to the same luxuries. That isn’t the real world.

… You’re not parking much attention, nor have you been around long, I presume. 🙃
