    Good opportunity to dig out this popular Futurama quote:

    > Didn't you have ads in the 20th century? Well, sure, but not in our dreams. Only on TV and radio. And in magazines and movies and at ball games, on buses and milk cartons and T-shirts and bananas and written on the sky. But not in dreams. No, sir-ee!

    > Samsung said the purpose of the pilot is to explore whether ads relevant to home chores can be useful to owners, and that overall pushback has been negligible. The “turn-off” rate for the pilot ad program remains in the bottom single-digit range, it said.

    There can’t possibly be consumers who want this, right? They’re likely just unaware that they can turn it off?

    Never buy any product from Samsung again. Permanent and total boycott. It’s an experiment the whole world is watching. For the love of god make it fail or they’ll put them literally everywhere.
