C.The person who builds an extension for the proprietary OSes that tracks when a program (or the OS) puts up one of those infuriating "Yes / Maybe Later" dialogs and blocks them from ever showing a dialog, ever again, will make a fortune.
Even on open OSes, one for the browser that did this would be incredible.

Would you like to enable "AI" in this application?
o Yes!
o Maybe later!
o If you ask me again, I shall turn you back into sand!

On one machine, I let it update and it didn't forget those preferences - but it arguably did something worse.
I have Firefox set to open new tabs to a blank page. My "home" page is a blank page. I don't want anything loaded when I start the browser or open a new tab or window. So I have all the junk turned off in the "Home" settings.
And today, when it restarted after the update, it showed me a page that said (paraphrasing) "Hey, we know you turned off all our marketing junk for your Home screen, but here's a preview of what you're missing. Please click <here> to turn it all back on".
So Firefox is now going with the "Yes" and "Maybe later" model? FFS, Mozilla.

New graffiti by Maybe Later on 24th St in SF, next to the old Discolandia. This looks super polished, but was done guerrilla style over a couple of nights. #MaybeLater #SFGraffiti #Graffiti #SanFrancisco MissionDistrict
Hey, #BigTech ...
Making "Yes" and "Maybe later" the only options is exactly how a date rapist thinks.
If your behaviour makes you adjacent to that, you might want to change your behaviour.
