Some Samsung smart fridges stopped working on Tuesday due to a firmware update.

Korean outlets were the first to report the problems, which affect Samsung’s Bespoke AI line of fridges. Star News Korea, per a Google-provided translation, said that most of the affected devices were four-door fridges from 2024 or later.

I've been hoping for the same for 20 years and smart bullshit just gets dumber and more plentiful every year.

its not exactly easy to spin up a factory making deshitified good.. and things like fridges and stoves are not exactly something someone can make artisanally in their garage.
