I know people who just automatically click yes. I don't think they ever even cared to read what is says. They just have the habit to click yes to every prompt to "make sure it works"

Decades of bad UI design have trained people to click away these kinds of things without reading them. Even people like you or I who should otherwise know better frequently do it.

I wonder what percentage would remain if the no-consent button was the primary button (filled button, saturated colour, bold font, etc.) and the consent button the secondary (outlined or transparent background without a border, regular font, etc.). I can't imagine it going much above 0, and I'd even guess that the ones who do consent intended not to consent but are expecting it to be the de-emphasised button.

He switched the yes/no button position... they would have automatically click "no" instead...
