   A classic in arrogant web design: NY Times constantly puts a popup over articles in my mobile browser, telling me why I should install the app. The "negative" choice is to say "Not right now" when what I really want is a "Never" option.

     @dangillmor I loathe 'nudge' marketing. No one feels more inclined to install your app because you refused to give them a 'no' option.
