I'm sure he understands the motive, but it's also questionable to use pre-checked boxes with unclear text.
Their use of the word "Check here" on the unchecked age box and "Click here" on the checked trial box really says something.
Again, "Check here" or "Click here" implies action must be taken to say yes. That's simply not the case with a pre-checked box.
Some surfers who don't understand that checked boxes always mean yes are leaving them checked as per the instructions next to the box.
According to the instructions, if you do want the trial then you should "Click here". That's not correct if it's already pre-checked.
A solution to stop the confusion would be to use "Check here" in both cases.
