     @marcoarment @caseyliss I'm curious—can you tell what prompted this, or if it's targeted from some previous behavior? Or do we think it's sent in waves? I haven't seen this notification, so it seems like it's not a blanket "send it to everybody at once" kind of thing.

     This is a core system app interrupting you, promoting a sale by a movie-ticketing company, to push you to go see the platform vendor’s new movie.

     Why not just pop up random ads all the time, always creating new channels that everyone’s opted-into by default so you can never keep up with opting out of them all?

     Oh wait, that’s already what happens.

     Apple’s as bad as everyone else. They don’t respect their customers — we’re fodder.

     They truly have no standards anymore.
