My anecdote at least happened. Your hypothetical by definition never did. The internet connection I haven't thought about since I installed the fridge. Not sure where the hassle is.

Also I don't understand why you think refrigerators are incredibly reliable. Compressor pumps and start capacitors are damn near consumables now days.

I've never experienced any critical part of a refrigerator break in my >30 years on this earth. Sorry you can't say the same.

The hassle isn't just in connecting it to the Wi-Fi, it's in securing and monitoring it to ensure it stays secure, so that I'm not giving people a foothold into my home network.

In my 40 years on earth it's happened to me 3 times. 2 times the food was lost. The most recent time I saved the food because I knew about it and could ask someone for help. Progress.
