This reminds me of gas station pumps that play ads on sub-par displays and tiny crackly speakers. I'm already paying for gas and now you think you can force crap ads on me? If an ad starts I immediately stop pumping and go to a different gas station. The fridges in people's homes. Expensive fridges! That's a hard pass.


I'm ready to print off some stickers that say "FUCK YOUR ADS" and stick them all over the gas pumps that do this. Probably get me arrested for vandalism though. I want to just smash those fucking displays every time.


One more reason to charge at home with an EV.


You realize your EV (or any new connected car) is next, right?


Cross my fingers, but I think my Nissan Leafs aren't "connected" enough to ever have to worry about ads. Certainly not during charging, when you just walk inside the house.
