Hi, everyone! This is an open invite to participate in our Alpha Test for Ariadne: a browser extension that helps you become aware of #DeceptivePatterns in cookie banners 👾

This is open to anyone on a chromium-based browser, regardless of technical background until May 31, 2023! If it’s not too much trouble, we’d appreciate if you helped us out by taking Ariadne for a test drive, answering a questionnaire about your experience, and boosting this.

For more info, 👉🏼 https://go.dantis.me/ariadne 👈🏼

These (illegal?) #DeceptivePatterns are normalised in development teams, compliance teams and (commercial?) management structures.

Massive culture change is required.

"Why it's time to update our #language about bad design patterns": https://amyhupe.co.uk/articles/changing-our-language-on-bad-patterns/ by @Amy_Hupe #deceptivePatterns #patterns #UX #UXDesign #inclusion #wordsMatter

It's good to start the new working year completing an important task that I've been pushing back for months. "Dark patterns" just became "Deceptive patterns" on my website.

Where an article I share uses the former, there's a note explaining why it's time to change language.
