Unfortunately, I agree with this. IF clearly marked.

Credit card companies, forum new member applications, software programs,... just about everything has some kind of 'pre checked' something.

While not all are sales related, or going to result in hundreds of dollars in bullshit you did not sign up for. You do get pre checked horseshit for more spam, you name and info sold off to other companies, and so on. You have to read, and uncheck all that shit.

Even the credit monitoring services I use for the three bureaus have it. Sadly, it's a case of reading. Keep in mind, I do not have a dog in this fight. We do not promote such things, nor have a program doing this.

It's simply one man's observation.
