I’ve been thinking that a dark pattern index would be really neat. Basically name and shame with deep dives. Each product is given a 1-10 value for assholery.

Would anyone else find that useful?



Dark Patterns Org [0] has a dedicated Hall of Shame. I'm all for having several places to call these patterns out though.

I saw that site, but that’s the best effort so far, correct?

I feel like this might be a Patreon-friendly thing.. funding the work to have it updated at least monthly with a new deep dive and rating.

Having it updated regularly seems like an important component to me.
