I agree completely with solosails and others here.
I buy Woo extensions, so Woo gets its fair share for giving me basic ecommerce software. I pay for my extensions, my theme, my hosting, for everything - it's mine - so I and only I should decide what gets plastered at the top of the page.
I stopped using Microsoft anti-virus because you couldn't turn it off when you needed to. Microsoft Support couldn't understand why anyone would want to do that. It's the same here, it doesn't matter why we should want to, we should have the right to choose whether we do or not. It's outrageous that we don't!
WooCommerce is being very backward in its customer service here. Good customer service means giving the customer what they want. The simple fact: it's my site - I should say what goes on it.
