Smart

Smart, smells like fart.

The adjective "smart", as in e.g. smartphone, is in the context of modern capitalist technology used as a euphemism for malicious features that include spyware, bloat, obscurity, DRM, ads, programmed planned obsolescence, unnecessary dependencies (such as required Internet connection), anti-repair design and others; it is the opposite of dumb. "Smart" technology is far inferior to the traditional dumb technology and usually just downright harmful to its users and society as a whole, but normal (i.e. retarded) people think it's good because it has a cool name, so they buy and support such technology. They are slowly boiled to accept "smart" technology as the standard.
