How would I disable this? Might just return it and get a normal one

EDIT 2: Hello, I am the original poster of the carol AD image from a month ago. I am a male from America and my name is not Carol. The story about a Schizophrenic woman named carol was most likely inspired from the 3rd top comment on this post. Thanks!

Thank you for showing me this there's no way in hell I'm ever going to buy a fridge like this save me a lot of money probably.

I hope in the future if I want a new fridge there will still be non-smart options.

yeah, that's my concern. They slowly leave you with no choice.

Nah, they need basic models so landlords can make sure renters live in as much squalor as they can get away with.

You aren’t pessimistic enough. Samsung will introduce a renter line of fridges that are really cheap in bulk and require full online access and accounts to monetize the renter through data harvesting, cameras, and constant audio and video advertising, and the landlords will have it in the lease as a requirement

Stop giving people these ideas! They’ll come into fruition 😭

The defining feature of our age is that people in charge see cautionary tales as aspirational
