Purposefully deceitful toggle switch colours. Am I saving my preference to receive none, or to receive all? Found on clevertap.com's mailing list service.

Yeah, what's the issue? Would you rather like 250 options? They'll probably code it so you need to toggle them separately. The color scheme is probably because of the same reason there is just one switch: They don't put that much effort in an elaborate scheme to spam people. It's just the bare minimum.
