The @EU_Commission has released results of a “sweep” of 399 retail websites: • 148 contained at least one dark pattern; • 42 used a fake countdown timer; • 54 used design to direct consumers to more expensive products; • 70 hid important info. https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/ip_23_418
@davidofyork @EU_Commission@social.network.europa.eu I would be happy if someone could automate this and make sweeps of thousands of websites. #EnforceGDPR
