Actually all Digsby users are told up-front during the install process about Plura. And you can easily turn off Plura from Digsby.

  Hmmmm. I would respectfully disagree. I'm somewhat conflicted as I have interests in a rival product in the twitter app space but IMHO it's not clear to your "average Joe" user what is going on. Further more, from my own experience, once you tell someone who's using an app that has Plura running what it is doing, people tend to be quite concerned and certainly not wanting to have it on their system. JDRock: I also believe you work with/for 80legs but can't see any disclosure in your posts. Not wanting to be a d*ck but if you are going to say that it's obvious and easy to turn off (and de-karma me for my comment) I think you should state whether that's from a NPOV or whether you're actually involved in the product.

    I think it's fairly obvious from my posts that I work for 80legs. If you try out the latest Digsby installation, you'll see that they've changed the install process. So while I suppose I am biased, it's also a fairly objective thing to observe. Lifehacker even posted a follow-up article applauding Digsby for the change, if I remember correctly. What I've seen is that if people are told about Plura up-front and have the option to turn it off from the get-go, they have no qualms about it. Digsby didn't do an awesome job about this initially, but they've corrected it. Also, I wasn't the only that d-ked you.
