Versions from my report: update-notifier 3.192.54.6 on Jammy.

** Description changed:

  I understand that, when informing me about notifications, update-
  notifier will tell me about Pro-only updates that I cannot receive
  unless I subscribe to Pro.
  
  Actual behaviour: However, I am also receiving notifications that tell
  me about Pro-only updates when I am not subscribed to Pro and there are
  no other updates I can receive.
  
  Expected behaviour: if I have taken a decision not to subscribe to Pro,
  then while I can expect to be told about Pro updates that I can
  subscribe to while being told about other updates, I do not expect to
  receive "Pro only" notifications with no other information.
  
  Screenshot attached.

  I suggest the following rule of thumb: we should never generate a *new*
  notification that displays only Pro updates unless the user has opted in
- to Pro. In other words, notices about Pro can "piggy-back" on existing
- notifications that would have happened anyway, but must not add any
- more.
+ to Pro. In other words, unsolicited notices about Pro can "piggy-back"
+ on existing notifications that would have happened anyway, but must not
+ create any new pop ups.
