U2 unveiled their latest EP to the public this week. The EP features a track that criticizes U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) while mentioning a Minnesota shooting event that took place in 2021.

The band described the songs as “impatient to be out in the world” and “songs of defiance.” The news caused online users to respond with their own type of rebelliousness. The incident reminded people about the 2014 situation when Apple used automatic downloads to put U2’s album “Songs of Innocence” into every iTunes user’s music collection.
One observer stated that “Apple now possesses the chance to execute its most humorous plan ever.”
The joke landed immediately. “Tim Cook licks Trumps boots. His response will lack any humorous element,” a person answered.
Another user chimed in, “Ah, yes…2014…what a time.”
The unwanted album transformed into an unending digital presence which stayed with most people forever. “That album is STILL on my fucking phone,” someone said. Another person described it as “iPod herpes” because users could not delete it successfully. “I’ve deleted it at least three times. It always comes back. Always.”
The discussion shifted to the current listening habits of U2 fans. “Tom Cruise and the six remaining U2 fans will find it entertaining,” one commenter joked.
The band’s supporters who disagreed with their political beliefs expressed their discontent. “Bono is friends with Rupert Murdoch,” one person noted. “Hard pass.”
Another person responded with sarcasm saying “Great, I’ve been on the fence about ICE. I told myself to wait for the celebrity endorsements before making any decisions.
A few defended the band’s history of activism. U2 began as a political band according to one user who mentioned their song “Sunday Bloody Sunday” as proof.
The attendees at the event used their new songs to demonstrate their knowledge of an outdated technology prank. The prevailing sentiment was clear: just don’t put it on our phones this time.

User wrote, “As long as it’s not dropped non-consensually on my phone and start playing randomly when” I’m trying to listen to something else. This whole situation brings to mind Apple Martin and other celebrity news that distracts from the main point.
