Not sure what you mean. There are no ads on the engineering blog, we don't have a newsletter, and we don't request location information or launch any confirmation dialogs.
If you're talking about a Genius song page, we still don't do anything you said except for showing ads, and playing the subscription message after you've listened to a 30s song preview.
- hasperdi 8y agoI am sorry that you didn't get the joke. It is not about your website specifically, but web in general. I see what you did as a dark pattern, it is going to inspire many internet marketers that only care about conversions, their funnels, and things to brag about to their peers. I bet the web will be invested with these things, resulting in a crappier user experience. But that doesn't matter right!? ...as long as the conversion rates are good. Sigh...
- rootusrootus 8y agoI didn't get the joke either. Until ehmorris responded, I assumed you were talking about the site this thread is about.
