Why... why whoever made this page, would you choose to display a feedback modal right as first time visitors view your page? If collecting feedback is the most important thing you want someone to do make it front and center page content. And if it's not, then don't. I was mildly curious about the site but upon seeing the modal it was an immediate back button click for me.
Shouldn't it be something like: countries censorship on the app store ?
