      The nag screen is important for a bunch of less technically literate people who would otherwise install malware without thinking twice.

      Or even once.

        I really don’t know how to feel about it

        The people it’s intended to protect will just click “yes” to anything in my experience

        I don’t have a statistical analysis of results over a normal distribution of the world population, though
