It's a bit like saying, "Do you love candidate X?", and then giving instructions for voting only to those who answer "yes".

- mangeletti 10y agoI don't think that any of these dark patterns represent the breaking of obligations by any party. Dark patterns don't represent anything truly sinister, and in most cases they are perfectly legal. They are just bad UX because they're dishonest about their intent.
