Apparently, you can turn off ads quite simply.

* How to turn off ads on your Family Hub The widget will appear by default on the fridges as part of the software update. However, Samsung is giving users the option to turn off ads. To do this, go to the Settings page on the fridge, scroll to Advertisements, select it, and you’ll be taken to a screen where you can toggle off ads.

This will remove the widget entirely. If you think you might actually like the widget’s other features (calendar, weather, and news), you can “X” out a particular ad, and it won’t pop up again. But then you’ll get another ad.

That button will soon become "Show fewer ads" if it doesn't just get removed at all.

Just like how Youtube won't let you switch off Shorts, but will let you click "Show fewer" which lasts for a few weeks.

Samsung marketplace on the phone used to have this- now it's just 'don't show this again today' button.

I wonder how many ads are coming down the pipeline; can I remove all of them if I sit in front of my fridge for 15 minutes?

Cmon. You know better than that.

The simplest way is to not connect a refrigerator to the internet.

For now.

I would call that flow "complex." So, I disagree with you.

Simple would be for the "X" button to offer to turn off Ads completely, do you disagree?

(Disclaimer: I'm a pro / lifelong tech and both are "simple" to me. And to clarify my opinion, my Mom, who is a pro musician, would NOT discover / know how to find that option.)
