Unauthorized Charcoal: GE fridges won't dispense ice or water unless your filter authenticates as an official ($55!) component

Just wait until they can perfect DRM on the water itself! Drink as much rainwater as you like, it won’t hydrate you. Only genuine authenticated water, coming through pipes that they’ve certified, can quench your thirst!

That’ll come as soon as they develop a reliable artificial kidney. Or worse than DRM water-- prescription water.
