Amusing, clever, but extremely fake.
This is a GE Café CFE28/CYE22 refrigerator and it definitely does not run Windows. You can use its little LCD screen as a digital photo frame, though, and there's a USB port for that purpose tucked beneath the lower edge of the bezel under the buttons. Somebody's just made an image of this fake "Windows update" screen and put it in the photo frame rotation.
still more tech than it needs
Don't know why the downvotes. You are absolutely correct.
My fridge doesn't even have a screen, but it has wifi. Wifi!! You do one thing. You are a box designed to keep my food cold. I set the temperature, and I forget that exists.
Anyway, we bought it when we bought our house. The previous owner offered to include all the appliances in the contract so it was nice to not have to buy any appliances. But that refrigerator stays OFF my network.
but think of all the frosty bitcoins you could be mining!
