    The message asking me…

    You've just installed WordPress SEO by Yoast. Please helps us improve it by allowing us to gather anonymous usage stats through PressTrends.

    Will not go away regardless of whether I choose ‘Allow’ or ‘ Do Not Allow’.

    This is incredibly annoying, as it appears on all pages and hovers over all content.

    This message is really very annoying. It appears on every page load, whether or not it is related to the plugin.

    To disabled this I manually edited the plugin file, and now I don't see it again :)

    I just commented line 32 in file wp-content/plugins/wordpress-seo/admin/class-pointers.php

    Here is the updated code.

    if ( !isset( $options['presstrends'] ) ) {
    	// add_action( 'admin_print_footer_scripts', array( $this, 'presstrends_request' ) );
    } else if ( !isset( $options['ignore_tour'] ) || !$options['ignore_tour'] ) {
    	add_action( 'admin_print_footer_scripts', array( $this, 'intro_tour' ) );
    	add_action( 'admin_head', array( $this, 'admin_head' ) );
    }

    As much as I love this plugin, and Joost's other work, this is incredibly intrusive, and just might cause me to stop using it.

    I'm hoping he removes these . . soon.

    Kind of strange, it seems to have stopped showing suddenly.

    I don't mind it once or twice. It seemed at the time that it was going to keep appearing on every dashboard load.

    Foot. Mouth.
