Couldnt you say the same thing about this situation, choice is given to you as two buttons with your approval.
The difference is, one asked for your approval at an annoying time, the other picked one for you by default, and you have to change it to something else after.
One is not respecting the user who already made a deliberate decision to change from the default. To be fair, if this appears once it's not a big deal. But if they keep nagging, then it's disrespecting their users and their choices, to get an advantage over the competition.
