Saying that some others do that is not an argument (should I recall
the code of conduct ;-). More seriously why if sage is used for a web
service? or just run in background for some reason? You should not
expect that a software is run by someone even if most of the time this
is true.
More reasonable options:
- ask user at download
- do something for the notebook
- ask William for something in SMC

If you add
if randint(0,99) == 0:
annoying_pop_up()
in the startup, then it will affect 1% of the starting of sage. I
guess that I launch sage hundred times a day. I will not love a pop up
each day (even in mean).
