Your nice hosts have talked a lot over the years about exploitative game design, and this week we brought in an expert on gamification to lay out some of the dark patterns in games that take players' money and time via deceptive framing and UX.https://samliberty.comSam Liberty - MediumSam Liberty - LinkedInDark PatternsGame DesignWhy “Addictive” Gameplay Should Never Be The Goal - Lydia Symchych, ELB LearningHEXAD FrameworkAddiction by Design - Natasha Dow SchüllTiny Habits: The Small Changes That Change Everything - BJ FoggHow to Change: The Science of Getting from Where You Are to Where You Want to Be - Katy MilkmanHow dating apps weaponized loneliness against their users - Sam Liberty
Der Konsumentenschutz hat Ticketshops von Schweizer Kultur- und Freizeitangeboten geprüft. Zwei Drittel verwenden sogenannte Dark Patterns. Diese verleiten zum Beispiel dazu, schneller oder mehr zu bezahlen als geplant. +++ Weiteres Thema: Warnung vor lebensgefährlichem Auto-Sitzpolster für Kinder.
Timmy der Wal ist vermutlich abgetaucht und nie wiedergekommen – Anlass genug für eine kleine Marinebiologie-Stunde mit höchst zweifelhaften Fakten über Walfleisch, explodierende Strandwale und die Frage, ob Wale eigentlich wirklich so schlau sind, wie immer behauptet wird (Spoiler: nope, sie ertrinken ja ständig). Außerdem in dieser Folge: Wieso ein einzelner Thunfisch 2,7 Millionen Euro kosten kann, warum Markus Söder die Bayernhymne offenbar für das drängendste politische Problem unserer Zeit hält, und ein längerer Rant darüber, warum die meisten erfolgreichen Interview-Podcasts in Deutschland eigentlich nur deshalb funktionieren, weil der Host austauschbar ist. Zum Schluss noch Roberts Spartipp des Tages: Wie man Adobe sein Photoshop-Abo auf knapp 16 € im Monat runterhandelt – inklusive Mini-Exkurs zu Dark Patterns, DaVinci Resolve und warum Lightroom langsam ein Problem hat. Themen dieser Folge: - Wal Timmy & traurige Walbiologie - Thunfischpreise im Großhandel vs. Rekordauktion - Söder, Bayernhymne, ideologiefreies Wurstessen - Christopher Nolans „The Odyssey" (Kinostart 16.

Nur noch ein Video, nur noch ein Post – und schon ist eine Stunde vergangen. Social-Media-Plattformen, Online-Shops und Spiele wollen uns möglichst lange am Bildschirm halten. Über die Suchtfalle Smartphone dreht sich diese Folge von c't uplink. Mit welchen Tricks die Anbieter die Aufmerksamkeit der Nutzerinnen und Nutzer einfangen – und was man dagegen tun kann, darüber diskutieren die c't Redakteure Andrea Trinkwalder, Jo Bager und Holger Bleich mit Moderator Keywan Tonekaboni. Holger Bleich erklärt, ab wann die Wissenschaft von problematischer Nutzung spricht und warum Jugendliche besonders anfällig sind. Andrea Trinkwalder hat sich den Empfehlungsalgorithmus von TikTok genauer angesehen: Warum spielt die App in Echtzeit so treffsicher Videos aus? Und welche Rolle spielt neben der Belohnung auch gezieltes Enttäuschen der Erwartung? Die sogenannten Dark Patterns – jene Designtricks in Shops, Spielen und Apps, die uns zum Kauf drängen oder im Abo-Hamsterrad halten – nimmt Jo Bager auseinander. Die Runde diskutiert außerdem, was die EU mit dem Digital Services Act erreichen kann, warum die Verfahren so quälend lange dauern und ob ein Social-Media-Verbot für Jugendliche tatsächlich die Lösung ist. Aber die Vier aus der c't Redaktion geben auch praktische Tipps, wie man die Tricks und Fallen umschifft oder abmildert.

Maciej wrócił i od razu zaczęło się na poważnie. Rozmawiamy o dark patterns w e-commerce — czyli tych sprytnych zagrywkach projektowych, które sprawiają że kupujesz rzeczy których nie chciałeś. UOKiK ma na to sposób i omawiamy co z tego wyniknie. Przy okazji — nowa strona LPK, szybki przegląd serialowy (One Piece, anime i kontrowersyjny Snape), Pokémon Pokopia który wciągnął Adama bez ostrzeżenia i KitKat który "zgubił" transport limitowanych batoników. Przypadek? Nie sądzimy.

Ever tried to tap your card at the pump… and it just doesn't work? Or scanned a QR code at a restaurant that leads nowhere? Yeah—this episode is about that. John and Josh vent about all the little (and big) ways businesses make life harder for customers, then connect it back to banking—where clunky apps, over-the-top security, and broken systems can cost you real relationships.

Dans cet épisode de "Comment j'ai réussi", Marie Potel-Saville, avocate de formation et cofondatrice de Fairpatterns, nous ouvre les yeux sur un phénomène inquiétant du web : les dark patterns. Ces pièges en ligne, conçus pour exploiter nos biais cognitifs et nous faire prendre des décisions que nous n'aurions pas prises autrement, sont malheureusement devenus monnaie courante sur la plupart des sites web et applications.Marie Potel-Saville commence par nous expliquer en détail ce que sont ces dark patterns : des cases à cocher pré-cochées, de fausses promotions, un design addictif ou encore des changements de prix de dernière minute. Selon les chiffres de la Commission européenne, 97% des sites web en Europe sont concernés, causant un préjudice de près de 8 milliards d'euros par an aux consommateurs.Bien que la réglementation interdise pourtant ces pratiques, leur mise en application reste difficile. Heureusement, la situation est en train d'évoluer, avec de nombreuses procédures judiciaires lancées au niveau européen contre les géants du numérique comme TikTok, Meta ou encore Shein. Des amendes conséquentes, à l'image de la transaction de 2,5 milliards de dollars entre Amazon et la FTC aux États-Unis, sont à prévoir dans les années à venir.Face à ce constat alarmant, Marie Potel-Saville a décidé d'agir en créant Fairpatterns, un outil permettant aux entreprises de détecter et de remédier à ces dark patterns. Son pari ? Démontrer qu'il est possible de concevoir des interfaces digitales engageantes et rentables, tout en respectant la liberté de choix des utilisateurs. Un défi de taille, mais nécessaire pour rétablir la confiance dans le monde numérique.Hébergé par Audiomeans. Visitez audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.
Fredrik chats to Sergès Goma about dark patterns and her Øredev presentation on them. We start off by talking about giving presentations and the background to the dark patterns talk. All the great versions of a talk - you never know what's going to happen. Dark patterns and ethics in software development are topics people like to share their experiences of. And it's easy to get caught in the pull between protecting your user and finishing your tickets. We as developers do have a lot of power, but we also have a job to do. Making (good) ethical decisions business decisions instead can suddenly get them budget and priority. Laws are good at creating such pressures sometimes. Toward the end, we discuss falling behind in tech, and Sergès gets Fredrik to make some predictions about the AI bubble before wrapping up on a positive note. Recorded during Øredev 2025.

Jim Love discusses how rapid adoption of agentic AI is repeating the industry pattern of shipping technology without security, citing issues like vulnerabilities in Anthropic's MCP and insecure open-source agent tools. He interviews Ido Shlomo, co-founder and CTO of Token Security, who argues AI agents are fundamentally hard to secure because they are non-deterministic, have infinite input/output space, and often require broad permissions to be useful. Cybersecurity Today would like to thank Meter for their support in bringing you this podcast. Meter delivers a complete networking stack, wired, wireless and cellular in one integrated solution that's built for performance and scale. You can find them at Meter.com/cst Shlomo proposes focusing security on access, identity, attribution, least privilege, and auditability rather than trying to filter prompts and outputs, and describes Token's "intent-based permission management" approach that maps agents and sub-agents as non-human identities tied to their purpose and allowed actions. The conversation covers real-world risks such as developer tools like Claude Code running with extensive access, widespread over-provisioning of admin permissions and API keys, exposure of unencrypted local token files, and misconfigurations that leak data publicly. Shlomo recommends organizations build governance processes for agents—discovery/inventory, boundary setting, continuous monitoring, and secure decommissioning—and says AI is needed to help police AI. He also highlights emerging trends like agent teams and multi-day autonomous tasks, and notes Token Security is a top-10 finalist in the RSA Innovation Sandbox 2026, planning to present an intent-and-access-focused security model for AI agents. 00:00 Sponsor: Meter's integrated networking stack 00:19 Why agentic AI security is breaking (MCP & open-source chaos) 02:53 Meet Token Security: practical guardrails for AI agents 04:57 Why you can't just ban agents at work (shadow AI reality) 06:24 Tel Aviv's cybersecurity pipeline: gaming, military, and startups 08:57 Why AI/agents are fundamentally hard to secure (new OS + 'human spirit') 13:44 Trust, autonomy, and permissions: managing the blast radius 18:17 Real-world exposure: Claude Code and the developer identity attack surface 20:16 A workable approach: treat agents as untrusted processes with identity + least privilege 22:33 Zero Trust for Agents: Access ≠ Permission to Act 23:27 Token's "Intent-Based Permission Management" Explained 25:29 Building the Identity Map: Tracing What Agents Touch 26:52 The Secret Sauce: Using AI to Secure AI in Real Time 28:10 Real-World Case: 1,500 Agents and Wildly Over-Provisioned Access 30:57 CUA 'Computer-Use' Agents: Exciting, Personal… and Terrifying 34:44 Secure-by-Default & Sandboxing: Fixing 'Always Allow' Dark Patterns 35:36 What Security Teams Should Do Now: Inventory, Boundaries, Governance 37:59 What's Next: Agent Teams and Multi-Day Autonomous Work 40:10 Tony Stark Vision: Agents That Improve the Human Experience 41:02 RSA Innovation Sandbox: Token's Big Bet on Intent + Access 43:01 Wrap-Up, Audience Q&A, and Sponsor Message

This week on Your Undivided Attention, we're bringing you Aza Raskin's conversation with Reid Hoffman and Aria Finger on their podcast “Possible”. Reid and Aria are both tech entrepreneurs: Reid is the founder of LinkedIn, was one of the major early investors in OpenAI, and is known for his work creating the playbook for blitzscaling. Aria is the former CEO of DoSomething.org. This may seem like a surprising conversation to have on YUA. After all, we've been critical of the kind of “move fast” mentality that Reid has championed in the past. But Reid and Aria are deeply philosophical about the direction of tech and are both dedicated to bringing about a more humane world that goes well. So we thought that this was a critical conversation to bring to you, to give you a perspective from the business side of the tech landscape. In this episode, Reid, Aria, and Aza debate the merits of an AI pause, discuss how software optimization controls our lives, and why everyone is concerned with aligned artificial intelligence — when what we really need is aligned collective intelligence. This is the kind of conversation that needs to happen more in tech. Reed has built very powerful systems and understands their power. Now he's focusing on the much harder problem of learning how to steer these technologies towards better outcomes.RECOMMENDED MEDIAAza's first appearance on “Possible”The website for Earth Species Project“Amusing Ourselves to Death” by Neil PostmanThe Moloch's Bargain paper from StanfordRECOMMENDED YUA EPISODESThe Man Who Predicted the Downfall of ThinkingAmerica and China Are Racing to Different AI FuturesTalking With Animals...

The Indian government is losing patience with consumer-tech platforms using dark patterns or manipulative design tricks.In late May 2024, Consumer Affairs Minister, Pralhad Joshi, gathered the country's biggest internet companies, Amazon, Google, Zomato, Ola Electric, etc to give them an ultimatum: clean up your user interfaces by September 5 or face the consequences.From hidden fees on Amazon to guilt-inducing pop-ups on Indigo, these tactics push users into spending more money, sharing more data, or giving up more control, often without realising it. And they're deeply baked into how these companies grow, making them hard to remove without hurting the bottom line.Tune in.**This episode was first published on 11 August, 2025Daybreak is produced from the newsroom of The Ken, India's first subscriber-only business news platform.

AI is becoming the most powerful surveillance machine ever built and most people are feeding it their deepest secrets without realizing who can read them. Proton founder Andy Yen joins Bankless to explain how Big Tech captures your identity, why AI chat logs are a privacy disaster waiting to happen, and what a self-sovereign, user-aligned future could look like. We explore how AI models profile you, why subscription business models don't guarantee privacy, how Proton built Lumo without retaining user data, and why encrypted email remains the cornerstone of your digital identity. Andy also breaks down EU “chat control,” Apple's privacy-washing, the crisis of trust in crypto, and the practical steps anyone can take today to reclaim their digital freedom. ---
In this episode of Leadership Bites, I interview Guido Palazzo, Professor of Business Ethics, University of Lausanne, who explores the dark side of corporate behaviour and the systemic issues that lead to ethical failures. We discuss Guido's background, the concept of his brilliant book 'The Dark Pattern: The Hidden Dynamics of Corporate Scandals' in corporate scandals, and the importance of understanding the systems and cultures that allow unethical behaviour to thrive. The conversation delves into the psychological aspects of corporate culture, the slippery slope of ethical compromise, and the need for organisations to create environments that promote ethical decision-making. Ultimately, we highlight the importance of awareness and proactive measures to prevent ethical failures in business.TakeawaysGuido focuses on the absence of ethics in business.Corporate scandals often involve good people making bad decisions.Systems, not just individuals, drive unethical behaviour.Leadership plays a crucial role in shaping organisational culture.Group dynamics can lead to conformity and ethical blindness.The slippery slope of compromise can lead to significant ethical failures.Survival instincts can overshadow ethical considerations in the workplace.Creating a 'bright pattern' can help organisations avoid ethical pitfalls.Awareness and proactive measures are essential for ethical business practices.The importance of having a court jester to provide honest feedback in organisations.Key Moments & Chapters00:00 Introduction to Ethics and Corporate Responsibility03:03 Guido's Background and Academic Journey05:37 Understanding Ethics in Business08:49 The Role of Systems in Ethical Failures11:45 Exploring Corporate Scandals and Dark Patterns14:35 The Impact of Leadership on Organizational Culture17:41 Group Dynamics and Ethical Decision Making20:30 The Combination of Dark Patterns in Corporations23:28 Survival and Ethical Compromise in Business26:12 Conclusion: The Human Element in Corporate Ethics26:42 The Dark Patterns of Corporate Culture29:39 The Slippery Slope of Compromise33:16 The Illusion of the Messiah in Leadership40:13 The Disconnect Between Leadership and Reality44:11 Finding the Bright Pattern in Dark TimesTo find out more about Guy Bloom and his award winning work in Team Coaching, Leadership Development and Executive Coaching click below.The link to everything CLICK HEREUK: 07827 953814Email: guybloom@livingbrave.com Web: www.livingbrave.com
Recorded live at SocialWest 2025, this episode features Andrew Turnbull, Managing Director of UX and Product at Evans Hunt, in conversation with guest host Meredith McKeough. Together, they explore the growing problem of “hostile user design” and how large platforms are enshittification experiences in the name of growth.Andrew shares insights from over 15 years in UX, using the Sonos redesign as a cautionary tale of business decisions eroding user trust. The conversation moves from platform-level design trends to what smaller businesses can learn, and avoid. They dig into the systems thinking required to scale responsibly, how to balance growth with respect for your users, and why customer feedback is still your most powerful strategic asset.This episode captures the mood shift in 2025 toward more ethical, user-first digital strategies, and how marketers and designers alike can push back on enshittification by prioritizing clarity, consent, and long-term value.
