Happy Turkey Day!
Yeah, but you would have to show that if the grill didn't have WiFi then the turkey would have to be watched CONSTANTLY... I mean every second or it would burn or explode or something stupidly implausible like the current Wireless rules.
Sorry if this a little late, but I just got off of work.
So what happens to a turkey that gets bricked?

But that's not at all how wireless bonuses work. Are you thinking about if the oven was bricked?
Mmmm, brick ovens. 
isn't there a toilet with wireless bonuses? I seem to remember that they had EVEN WORSE security built in than shadowrun gear.

Turkey without wifi becomes incompatible with side dishes? Opening the oven becomes a Complex Action?
More like this:
In Shadowrun, you stick a Turkey in the oven. End of process. The oven wirelessly pings the RFID chips inside the Turkey and discover how long it needs to cook for. Nobody, and I nobody, would know what temperature and how long to cook a turkey they just bought. Why would they? It would seem incredibly archaic and backwards if you had to dial the right settings in your oven. You're not a professional chef! Why would you know this??!!
Now, if you turn off the Oven's wireless capabilities... well, what the hell does your oven have to go on? There aren't even manual controls on the damn thing. You need to crack it open and jury-rig yourself a basic interface to control temp and time. Your wifi oven WILL cook a better turkey than you - it will adjust when you open the door and let the heat out, will adjust perfectly to the weight of the Turkey, etc. You do that by hand - you get an inferior turkey. Possibly burnt black.
