Physical wallets don't have ads, so Apple Wallet should maintain the same privacy and intimacy.
Apple Wallet is trusted with sensitive information like finances, identity cards, and keys, making ads inappropriate.
Users might think Apple Wallet is tracking their interests if they receive targeted ads, harming trust in privacy.
The ad undermines Apple's efforts to position Wallet as private and trustworthy compared to other tech companies.
