 * Hello,
 * I guess many of us do want a clean source code without advertising or plugin 
   infos in it.
 * Every time I update to a newer version of WordPress SEO I have to go to the frontend/
   class-frontend.php and delete these phrases:
 * “This site is optimized with the Yoast WordPress SEO” and “Yoast WordPress SEO
   plugin.”
 * Thanks for the plugin, yes, it is for free (like many other plugins), but other
   plugins do ask if they may put some advertising info or not… WordPress SEO does
   it without asking.
 * Could you please deliver an option for that so that the user can decide if those
   infos shall appear or not?
 * I GUESS, you will answer with “No, I will not, you have to delete it every time
   again after every update”, but I would not see the sense in it. If people don
   ´t want it – and many do not want to show these infos at all – it would make 
   MUCH more sense to put such an option to the plugin, because those people will
   anyway delete the info every time again. But this way it would be just ONE click
   instead of “every time again and again”.
