Sometimes it comes down to a judge simply deciding "I'll know it when I see it."[1] I think the bigger problem is our judicial and legislative system doesn't have the periphery to fully grasp how vast and damaging of a problem dark patterns present.

- dylan604 5y agoDo judges have this kind of power any more? Thinking in terms of all of the mandatory minimums and what not that tie judge's hands in deciding cases. Judges being able to "know it when they see it" would be the only way "spirit of the law" type of legislation would work. Then you have the problem of Judge A in District 1 being much more lenient than Judge B in District 2. Not sure if that's a bad thing or not, just mentioning things.
