Haha, how can you defend Microsoft like this. Imagine McDonald's applying such dark UI patterns: maybe forget part of your order, put your change on the table

Haha, how can you defend Microsoft like this.
Imagine McDonald's applying such dark UI patterns: maybe forget part of your order, put your change on the table under a napkin so you don't notice it, only offer you the free ice cream the 3rd time you ask, etc. People would be up in arms!
But Microsoft?! Well, they are the darling of the tech world now so it must only be a prank no?
No evil to see here, sir!
- partiallypro 5y ago"But Microsoft?! Well, they are the darling of the tech world now so it must only be a prank no?" Google and Apple do it too and no one has complained. Why suddenly the up and arms when Microsoft does it? That doesn't sound like a darling of the tech world to me.
- emouryto 5y agoWhataboutism. People complain about Google and Apple too. Though, not even Apple applied such dark patterns to force you to create an account with them. There's still time though!
