This genuinely annoys the living hell out of me: https://www.reuters.com/legal/amazon-dup.. #amazon are being #sued *rightfully* by the #ftc for #darkpatterns in their #ui to rob their #customers of #millions . All other Coutnries including the #uk must do the same, it's insane. We all deserve better.
Please let this be true: https://www.niemanlab.org/2021/11/the-en.. I really hate ub- #subscribe #darkpatterns - *especially* when #money is involved. This is a great move by the #ftc and is actually representative of things they *should* be doing, not #attacking the #internet !
#firefox is now using #darkpatterns to get #user #location #data and share it to #advertisers https://www.theregister.com/2021/10/08/m.. What the hell is going on at #mozilla ? It really feels like they are losing their way...
Disgusting #darkpatterns used by #gdpr " #compliant " companies like #starbucks and #trustarc https://twitter.com/pixelscript/status/1.. Artificial delays added for #disabling #cookies is scummy at best.
I don't even use #reddit and I find it one of the most annoying websites to use on my occasional visits: https://ognjen.io/reddits-disrespectful-.. I don't want to download their stupid #app and I really don't appreciate the #darkpatterns to make me do so.
