Gross, my fridge got hit with ransomware again and now all the food inside is encrypted. Time to see if my canned backups are any good.

...Where did I put those backups?

    Wait a second... you're into something here. What if a fridge could lock and unlock sections by Face ID? It could make sure my kids aren't drinking my beer! Or eating my lunch for tomorrow. Or half a birthday cake. What if I could require my kids to grab an apple with a soda?

    That would be kinda neat if I had money I couldn't think of a better use for.

    Someone hacked my fridge and gave it a virus. I ate the food and got gastroenteritis.

    The food encryption was unnecessary, I already got DDOS'd when my wife and kids got there first and ate all the cake Before I got home from work.
