Apple has upset a lot of people by giving away, by force, a copy of U2's new album to everyone who uses iTunes.

Some people think the outrage is a bit over-the-top. Others think it represents the nadir of capitalist monoculture.

Either way, it turns out that U2 have been hiding in your iPhone all along - and there is nothing you can do.

For visual proof of this nightmarish turn of events, consider the following:

In fact so many people vocally protested that they (a) hate U2 and (b) don't want someone else to make the decision for them to own their new album that Apple was forced to issue a tool to let people permanently remove it from their account.
