GE refrigerators pwned via barcode exploit [the scan to save 20% sticker is bogus] /s

> not so sardonic, if it was pwnable, or broken, you could really hurt a lot of people, by letting thier food get warm and spoil then chilling it again.

I don't think I need a new $4000 refrigerator with an ad-spewing tablet and barcode scanner.

I do think a $100 device with a barcode scanner and a tiny LCD screen that attaches magnetically to the fridge and has 3 buttons: "Buy More", "Empty", "Expired", where you scan an item then hit the appropriate button it syncs to a backend service that helps build shared grocery lists would be a winner.
