I think it's fairly obvious from my posts that I work for 80legs.
If you try out the latest Digsby installation, you'll see that they've changed the install process. So while I suppose I am biased, it's also a fairly objective thing to observe. Lifehacker even posted a follow-up article applauding Digsby for the change, if I remember correctly.
What I've seen is that if people are told about Plura up-front and have the option to turn it off from the get-go, they have no qualms about it. Digsby didn't do an awesome job about this initially, but they've corrected it.

Also, I wasn't the only that d-ked you.
