    George & Henry vacs have been watching you for a long time. 😆

    Way before Samsung TVs, and other appliances.

    Yeah, there’s a slide on the so called IoT within a presentation. A little bit about it in other words.

    I’m guessing that nobody, other than perhaps Samsung agents, have given it a lot of thought. 😉

    I can remember working on the LG American style fridge freezers,when LG first connected some models to the Internet for Internet shopping.

    This did not take off as you had to pass every item past the bar code reader for it to know what products you had used.

    LG also had an American Style fridge freezer with a TV screen in the fridge door.

    This also did not last long.

    If the manufacturers continue to make more and more advanced appliances then it should give plenty of repair work as there is a lot more to go wrong.

    I wonder on some of the dishwashers and washing machines connected to the Internet,
    if they will be able to dial 999 when the PCBs catch fire. 😆
