Our Aversion to A/B Testing on Humans Is Dangerous
- luckylion 7y agoWere people freaked out by Facebook's tests because "omg tests", or were they freaked out because Facebook made some people's lives worse ("slightly"), manipulated emotions and is generally not a trustworthy company? I suspect that people feel very differently about A/B tests depending on what's tested, the way it is tested (negative impacts of the test?) and who is testing it (aka "is this to improve lives? or is it to better manipulate me into spending more time on FB?")
