People have attention spans. If a warning is placed within a 2 page text they 'll likely see it.
If it is hidden under a 20-page lawyer speak TOS document they will likely miss it.
- XCSme 2y ago> People have attention spans. If a warning is placed within a 2 page text they 'll likely see it. If they can't dismiss it, yes. If they already entered the app with the goal of doing something, most people will skip it. (e.g. you open your email client to check on a very important email, if a big warning appears, doesn't matter how short, you're most likely to dismiss it to continue with reading/responding to the important email).
- XCSme 2y agoThis pop-up dismissal is also built on tens of years of software showing random error messages and prompts, with the user being conditioned to click "Run anyway" with zero consequences. How many of those warnings/prompts have an actual impact, and are anything more than informative?
