Just in case you don't get enough advertising in the privacy and sanctuary of your home, good news! Refrigideezers will soon show you ads on a screen on the door! It's true! I react to this silliness in this Episode 271: Baffling Ripples of Synergy.

In this episode, I read from or mentioned: an old Smart TV privacy policy^*; an article describing a Smart TV maker inserting an ad in a streamed video^*; Android Authority's article about ads coming to the Silly Screen on your refrigi-deezer; and a Billboard Insider article about combining radio ads with face plants.

I play: a BBC television news story^* featuring a man named Peter Kent telling his telly to change channels. Musically, KMFDM opens the show backing Shoshana Zuboff; and I close with Julie & Rolf & the Campfire Gang singing "Over the Rainbow."
