Maybe next they'll bring back the Juicero and the "I am very rich" app. Oooh! Make it so you need to buy the rich app to access the coffee maker. Genius!

All your pods are belong to us.

This is going to do as well as Nespresso's "wifi" coffee maker from years ago. The one they quietly cancelled and shoved out of existence because, even without the DRM, it was ridiculous.

I still have my Keurig 2.0 which occasionally complains about non-licensed cups.

Meanwhile, I'm using a regular drip maker that cost me $8 and takes any coffee you can throw in it with no DRM, no internet connection, no weirdness or expensive pods, just flip a switch and it makes coffee like magic!

Bring back manual coffee maker.
Replying to @internetofshit
The only reason to do this is to force people to buy a new one because Keurig stopped updating the firmware.

Keurig needs to be smarter, make its own coffee-machine ransomware.
