Yes, it sucks, but that’s how the free market works.
- ganstyles 6y agoPresumably not, if they use dark patterns and not only survive, but thrive. Right?
- Cyph0n 6y agoAgain, I highly doubt that NYT relies on these dark patterns, but I could be wrong. If NYT actually relied on these tactics to keep themselves afloat, then I wouldn’t call it “thriving”, simply because these kinds of techniques are not sustainable at all in the long run.
