There's a comment voted to death about phones showing ads. Remember when Google's selling point was that their home page just had a search interface and not like e.g Yahoo, a homepage "portal" full of celebrity, etc, news? I got a new Android phone recently, you can swipe left from the home screen to get the Google search, and there "Google Discover" is active, and it has celebrity, etc, news. Even the search suggestion drop down is to show what searches are trending. I share the dead comment's sentiment of needing curse words.

It feels like everything is so user hostile nowadays, even the Google keyboard nag you to give them a Play Store star-rating and review. Or they interrupt you with a spammy notification that asks you to tell your friends about them... (Insert more curse words here).

Maybe I should start a SaaS that will offer IoT device manufacturers a way to spam their owners to rate them on the appropriate store. You touch the fridge door, it doesn't budge, and the screen lights up: "Before you get your milk, do you like your fridge? Please rate us 5 stars on the Walmart store!"
