In any context, "we don't need your permission" sounds terrible.  It screams of disrespect for others.

That's not how I interpret it at all.  I look at it as "We know we're not a premier, 'name brand' program but we're going to be good anyway.  We're going to disrupt the status quo.  You may not like it, but we don't care."  At the end of the day it's all just marketing, but that's what it said to me.
