That’s in fact one of the gripes I have with certain MacOS software. It would be far better if menu bar icons were opt-in rather than opt-out. The average non-technical user eventually ends up having tons of these icons in the menu bar.

The latest version will let you remove them even if the app itself doesn't let you.

I mean, that’s great, but it would be even better if MacOS required explicit permissions before allowing an app to place an icon in the menu bar.
