Subject: Re: [Tails-ux] Article: "People disregard security warnings on computers because they come at bad times"
It was in interesting article and somewhat relevant to the work of this
list    =)
     When I read it I noticed that one of the points about timing that 
effects me most was not included
When a pop-up appears in the middle of something I'm doing, there is 
almost never anything included about how it will effect what I'm in the 
middle of doing...
   I especially hate it when it takes over and will not let me do 
anything till I answer the question, not even let me use the browser to 
look up info. about whether it is a valid thing to click...    makes me 
feel like it is ransom ware instead of genuine fix-it...
