Cool, next they'll add recaptcha to change/reject cookies.
Dark patterns are everywhere and there's seemingly no widespread boycott against them. Open source projects should have banners about them on their homepage, as they've had for other social issues.
- ShadowBanThis01 4y agoMy favorite is the big button that says "Do not sell my information," which takes you to a panel that has "Sale of personal information" turned ON. Even worse, look at this BS: https://i.imgur.com/Q0Hlzk3.png https://i.imgur.com/Q0Hlzk3.png The button that says "Do not sell my information" means YES DO sell my information when it's "on." I complained to them directly and said I'd pursue a complaint with the CA state's attorney, and to my surprise they actually changed it. But you still see this: https://i.imgur.com/fx0pqxA.png https://i.imgur.com/fx0pqxA.png
