Wix SEO Tip: Wix Is Obnoxious

I was just looking for info on a local restaurant to hit in Pleasanton tonight and noticed this obnoxious message from Wix:

Even if Tri Valley Bistro has a free Wix site, is this any way to treat a customer? Do you think Tri Valley Bistro’s customers either would be interested in creating a Wix site or even care/know what Wix is?
