Title:
  motd-news.timer trigger motd-news.service even if disable

Status in base-files package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Hello, guys, how are you?
  I notice motd-news.timer activate motd-news.service even when motd-new.service disable.

  I follow this doc's from UBUNTU:
  https://ubuntu.com/legal/motd

  /etc/default/motd-news has an ENABLED=1 setting that to 0 for disable.

  It's not working too…

  When you reboot the server and put
  sudo systemctl status motd-news.service

  Service look dead. (disable)
  but he got trigger by motd-news.timer after 10 - 20 minutes (screenshot):
  https://ibb.co/yXTpzGq

  if you look on the screenshot, you will see:
  TriggeredBy: ● motd-news.timer

  I can disable the motd-news.timer service, but i don't know if it will affect other services of UBUNTU.
  Anyway It's still a bug, even if i disable the timer service, it's not should be this way.

  Happened on 2 Different machines of UBUNTU 22.04 (Google Cloud
  Platform)

  Be happy for your recommendation before i disable the motd-new.timer
  with systemctl.
