That's funny, but they can only ask ONCE if they can always send crash data, not ask again every time the program crashes, which solves that problem.

I think it's (and should be) up to the operating system, not the vendor. When programs eat themselves on macOS I get the option to send debug information to the programmer each time. Sometimes twice if the program has its own crash reporting mechanism, too (Panic's Coda, for example).
Maybe there's an "always remember my selection" checkbox, but I don't remember ever seeing it, except once a year when I install the new version of macOS.

There's even a comment box where you can explain what you were doing when the error occurred. I like to think someone out there reads my helpful comments. I would love that as a client developer. :(
