What’s a better design for asking for consent?
- tekknik 5y agoMost of the banners swap the confirmation, cancel and allow all buttons. Don’t do this. Most of the banners also swap the direction of the on off toggles so it looks opposite of what action you’re taking. Don’t do this either. Instead, have a simple modal with confirm and cancel in the proper locations, and just use checkboxes. Have every one deselected to start with as if someone is viewing that modal they’re likely about to disable all of them.

But "more information" takes you to a Byzantine click through maze. If it were legally mandated what the allowed language and also graphic design language for this was then much of the problem would be alleviated.
- gpm 5y agoDon't prompt for consent unless there is a concrete benefit to the particular user you are asking, and in that case make the trade off clear. In other words, for all these news sites doing it, "just stop".
