Anyone else see flags? Would be cool if it does work but a per drink model in your house just sounds so dystopian. Can it operate without an internet connection - from all I could read, the answer seems like a hard no.

This seems even worse than always connected to the internet, it's built specifically to track your habits. Still, if this is somewhat successful it's likely someone eventually makes one with a less ridiculous price scheme like charging for the ingredients.

Hopefully that would include an offline feature, but given how consumer electronics work these days I'm not super optimistic.
