I said no and Apple said yes

    You ever notice how Apple never really lets the user say "no" to their nudges?

    It's always "maybe later" and never "no seriously, I don't want this, go away"

      I get the annoyance at "ask me again later", but "maybe later" or "not now" is helpful - there's no way to trigger dialogs by yourself, so this is a promise that even if you say "no" in the dialog, you can still go into settings to change your mind. Gives me less anxiety about the choice.

        Then build better interfaces. Don't ask stupid or nefarious questions.
