jan 1, 2018 - "Dark UX"

Description:

"In 2018, the General Data Protection Regulation was put into effect by the European Union, and proclaimed as “the toughest privacy and security law in the world”. This was created in response to growing concerns around personal data breaches and applies to “organizations anywhere, so long as they target or collect data related to people in the EU”.

As technology grows and privacy wanes, strict regulations around protecting personal information become paramount and must be considered in all aspects of web design and development.

On an ethical front, “Dark UX” has become a rising concern over the past few years. Dark UX refers to using web design to intentionally manipulate a user into doing something they don’t want to do." (https://tillerdigital.com/blog/the-history-of-web-design/)
