I remember when NOT seeing ads was enough of a value that people would pay extra for it.

If I go to my fridge for cheese, and it shows me an ad for Jenny Craig, I'm putting a hammer through the door.

I am morbidly curious what ads would actually end up being run. I would presume food related stuff, but I'm wondering if it would "mass market" stuff, or if it would be like...podcast products, like Blue Apron and Magic Spoon.

I can see it being the latter, just because Samsung might have a specific (though maybe not accurate) image of the kind of person who would eagerly buy a "smart fridge" with a screen on it.

I feel like it'd be targeted at first, based on your buying history, but like every device invented by man would soon just be a firehose of garbage

That makes sense. The amount of resources wasted on putting ads everywhere is truly amazing.
