Apple Wallet just went full Bono (but with Brad Pitt this time)

Remember when users revolted after Apple pushed an unwanted U2 album onto 500 million devices back in 2014?

Well, it seems Apple HQ *has* forgotten… because it’s just done something similar.

This time it’s a notification from Apple Wallet promoting the new Formula 1 movie with Brad Pitt. Apple poured a whole load of $$$ into the movie, and maybe that’s why they decided to send out a push notification earlier today to millions of iPhones.

Umm.. isn’t this kinda like spam? I guess at least it’s not eating into your storage as much as Bono did.
