We should instead keep it visible with an explanation. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareCenter/Recommendations#Opting_in_and_out>: "If you click “Turn On Recommendations” (or choose “View” > “Turn On Recommendations…” and confirm the same disclosure text in an alert), the button and caption should fade out. If there is no Internet connection, it should be replaced by the faded-in text “Recommendations will appear when next online.”."
