TL;DR
- Samsung introduced advertisements on its Family Hub refrigerators earlier this year.
- While there was an option for disabling ads, this also meant losing widget functionality.
- An owner now shares that a new update allows ads to be turned off without losing access to weather forecasts.
A major injustice has been done to consumers. And no, this time we’re not talking about ill-conceived tariffs torpedoing the economy. Earlier this year, Samsung shared the unthinkable: It was about to start serving advertisements on refrigerator screens in our kitchens. While those ads have since arrived, this week we’re finally getting some good news about them, as owners finally get access to a useful new option for disabling them.
