Amen!
Speaking for apps but also of OSes, all that crap (AI integration, "Abobe Cloud" integration, and so on etc) should be not just opt-in, but also invisible once switched off (as opposed to some icon or banner nagging you about it in the UI, or ocassional popups asking you if you want to "enable it").
- ta988 2y agoI think this was not the case here they weren't nagging about anything. And it wasn't working unless you did set up a token. But it is always the right move to refactor code like that into optional plugins especially for enterprise users where you want to be sure nothing could leak if a user had their personal token.
- coldtea 2y agoFor iTerm yes, don't remember them nagging. But other apps and services (from Apple, Adobe, MS, etc) yes.

- pier25 2y agoThe Adobe Cloud stuff is featured prominently all over their products even if you've disabled it in Adobe CC. It's disgusting.
