Samsung advertising new phone in my notifications

Not sure if it is like that because I'm in Korea, but on my Samsung S9 Samsung is injecting ads for their new S24 in my notifications. I've had the phone for 5 years and this is the first time I see ads in my phone notifications, unbelievable.

That's not new, they have been doing this for a while now. 1st noticed when the S10 series was launched.

Glad I bought a cheaper and older phone then. I don't have this fortunately

It's so incredibly easy to disable, I'm not sure how people are justifying their phone choice based on the apps they have installed. It's not part of the OS.

It's easy to disable for now lol, the enshittification doesn't stop here

Oh sure, but OP's phone is from 2018, so yours isn't safe either.
