Did anyone ever check that for hidden messages or viruses?

It seems that’s right around the time everything went to shite.

You stupid son of a bitch.



I think you might have just blown the lid off the whole thing.

Even if there wasn’t some nefarious code or spyware embedded in the U2 album, forcing people to even have a U2 album is a crime against humanity all by itself.

What creeped me the most was the weird album cover and being forced to look at it.

You can’t delete it either which is event weirder. One thing to automatically give it to people but if they don’t want it then let them get rid of it if they want.

They didn’t make me. As soon as I got an iPhone, I turned off all the auto download stuff.
