gollark: Probably. They use rather unclear language.
gollark: Their whole thing of "let's be approachable and use the cool kids' language" doesn't really help comprehensibility.
gollark: Apparently it *does* actually ask if you want to give the device access, so if people blindly say "yes" it's just them being silly.
gollark: ... why would they do it *that* way? Does it not even say something like "would you like to allow this device access to your account: yes/no"?
gollark: I think they have *some* vague idea of economics and history, or have advisors who do, but don't care and do the good-sounding-if-you-don't-think-about-it-much thing.
