Here is another unsubscribe dark pattern: http://imgur.com/a/lLZAE http://imgur.com/a/lLZAE
* Do I check the item if I want to unsubscribe from it?
* Or do I uncheck the items I don't wish to receive?
50-50 chance -- which I'm sure they love. Clicking "Update" gives no feedback either, just reloads the page.
- wingerlang 10y agoTo me it looks like the checked ones are the ones to unsubscribe from.
- kagamine 10y agoThe button text should read "unsubscribe" in that case, not "update", and the header text "Subscriptions". It could be a lot clearer.
- kagamine 10y agoThat was interesting. My reaction was "is this actually a dark pattern, or just designed by a complete idiot?" Because the user trying subscribe and the user trying to UNsubscribe both have a problem in understanding what is going on there. Somebody should get an award for that.
