  1. The person who builds an extension for the proprietary OSes that tracks when a program (or the OS) puts up one of those infuriating "Yes / Maybe Later" dialogs and blocks them from ever showing a dialog, ever again, will make a fortune.

    Even on open OSes, one for the browser that did this would be incredible.

    Would you like to enable "AI" in this application?

    o Yes!
    o Maybe later!

    On one machine, I let it update and it didn't forget those preferences - but it arguably did something worse.

    I have Firefox set to open new tabs to a blank page. My "home" page is a blank page. I don't want anything loaded when I start the browser or open a new tab or window. So I have all the junk turned off in the "Home" settings.

    And today, when it restarted after the update, it showed me a page that said (paraphrasing) "Hey, we know you turned off all our marketing junk for your Home screen, but here's a preview of what you're missing. Please click <here> to turn it all back on".

    So Firefox is now going with the "Yes" and "Maybe later" model? FFS, Mozilla.

  8. Maybe Later is dope. I love seeing their #graffiti and #StreetArt around town and I'm excited to see their show tonight. If you live in #SanFrancisco, you've probably seen their work too.#SlapStickers #MaybeLater #SFGraffiti
