Technology is, by and large, a good thing, but sometimes it goes too far and becomes unnecessarily bogged down by extra bells and whistles that nobody really needs. We want you to give us some prime examples of when this has happened!
For an example of the sort of thing we're after, consider refrigerators that can connect to Wi-Fi. Nobody needs that functionality on their fridge and while it might be cool, it's ultimately nothing more than a gimmick.
Think of another suggestion along those lines, provide a link to the product you're describing so we can verify it's actually real, and tell us exactly why you think it's over the top to win $1!
Task: Share an example of when technology went too far unnecessarily
