That comparison is missing a bit. That fellow student is not just asking you. He asks everyone and sure enough there are some willing to say yes. That is the problem. There are still enough such people so its worth for them. They don't care about the no sayers. Who cares if you are anoyed if the next five people say yes? So no. They will never back off. Only when the numbers turn red. And then they probably will find an even worse system instead of improving.
OP's article would imply that they do. There's literally no other reason to do what they've done with OneDrive. They've given a list of reasons that they find to be "the only possible reasons why you would reject such an amazing program", and given you no other options. Historically, yeah, that's been the case, you don't want it, fine.... and they go and sell it to someone who does; but this isn't that. This is pestering you as to why you don't like them and no answer YOU provide is good enough; only if you fit into their little boxes, is your answer "good enough".... for now.
