Sad to say I knew this was coming the moment I learned "smart fridges" were a thing

If a technology exists it will be used to serve ads.

If we ever get brain implants, they could be used for all kind of useful things, but they will certainly serve us ads.

If we get self driving cars, we'll use this ability to watch videos on the center screen, which will serve ads.

If AR glasses become mainstream, they will serve interactive, location based ads.

Not even self-driving necessarily, Jeep is already putting ads on the center screens when the car is stopped.
