The idea of Google lecturing anybody about hijacking UI for dark patterns is absurd.
The company that hijacked an open source mobile OS and turned it into a closed source profit machine.
The company that hijacked the web so “accelerated mobile pages” could effect a walled garden.
The company that hijacked a browser and turned it into an anti-privacy tracking system.
It’s like R. Kelly giving a keynote on safeguarding minors.
EDIT: …but, yes, to be clear, I loathe the hijacking of back buttons too. Just a shame I have to read this sanctimonious shit from a company with such a terrible track record on trust.
