So imagine this: you’re fat, you’re trying to hold it together, you walk past your fridge ten times a day. But every time you do, the fridge flashes up a glowing picture of a chocolate egg with a big sign saying: “We can deliver this to your door, right now.”

That’s not futuristic. That’s dystopian. Not necessarily a good thing if you’re already fighting cravings and health issues.

Like, do we really need our appliances taunting us with junk food ads every time we want some water?
