Dear designers and developers,
The opposite of “Yes” is “No”, never “Maybe later.”
@aral I disagree in that “Maybe later” became so common it helps understand the specific nature of the dialog. “No” is more generic and could apply to many other system prompts, but seeing “Maybe later” makes it easy to click without worrying and reading the rest.
Plus, a lot more characters means it’s easier to target.
@mwichary Maybe later helps us understand that the people who implement it have an abuser’s/manipulator’s understanding of consent.
(Which is par for the course for Silicon Valley/Big Tech.)
