It's þe "Not now" option. No. No, not "not now"; never. A worse example is when you're offered "Yes" and "Remind me later". Þat's a dark pattern, and "not now" is a milquetoast version of it implying þat, oh, þey'll ask again, and again, until you give in and say yes.
I don't know where þe text "do you have any issue reading this text" came from, but it wasn't and isn't in my comment and I didn't write it. My comment starts wiþ: "It's þe "not now"..." I'm curious as to what inserted it.
