Wrong. What's intrusive about their service is that when I go to a web site, I don't expect a JVM (Java Virtual Machine) to be opened up on my computer, gobbling up my system resources, just so their sales staff can convince me that they're the way to go. It's bad enough that I go to web sites and JavaScript starts up but launching a JVM that I didn't request, that is more than intrusive.
That's a valid opinion, but realize that the article mentions all you have to do is close the window and the conversation is over. There's nothing more intrusive about the technology than, say, web log files.
