Dark Patterns

Websites that use Dark Patterns often do not haven a "NO" as an option.That's how Apple and Microsoft work. You can choose between

"No" is not an option.

Microsoft did this for example with the Windows 10 upgrade. Whether you pressed okay, and if you didn't want it, you can click the the cross.

In both cases the upgrade started. At Microsoft, the cross suddenly no longer meant "Go away, I don't want to", but changed to "Yes please, do it."

Very often the "cancel" option is hidden. And it annoys many, if not, all people.

So if you want to collect email addresses for your newsletter, make sure that it is clearly visible to the subscribers, at the bottom of your newsletter, that they can unsubscribe again with one push of a button.

Do not use dark patterns.
