I think what is going on is that this kind of nagware is hoping some will think "oh I must have to say yes, so I'll click yes." I also think they are depending on people being in a hurry so they will choose yes in haste. Either way both Google and Twice Dailies are now on my beware of nagware list. It will Grow, it will grow.
I have encountered a new kind of malware (software that makes life a pain) Nagware. What is nagware? Glad you asked. Well recently we saw in the news where some famous people took candid shots of themselves with their iPhone. These were stored on the iCloud. Well Google has a cloud as well and I have it turned off on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 4, in fact I have all cloudy apps turned off. Yet every time I log into my email account I am nagged by Google to turn it on, every time. I have it defaulted to off, but there is no where to choose "never ask again" so with 3 email accounts it can be a bit of a nag. But I keep saying NO!.Well at Twice Dailies (A gas station/fill your belly stop) I was asked AFTER I inserted my debit card "Would you like a car wash?" I choose NO, and got the confirm. Well guess what? "Would you like a car wash?" NO!.
