Dark Patterns and Addictive Designs

open access: yesWeizenbaum Journal of the Digital Society
The proliferation of digital platforms has given rise to manipulative design practices known as “dark patterns,” which exploit users’ vulnerabilities to influence behavior, leading them to make decisions against their own interests.

Dark Pattern Guardian:Detection Of Dark Patterns in Online Games

open access: yes
Dark patterns -manipulative design techniques used in gaming apps—often undermine user autonomy and negatively impact the overall user experience. Dark Pattern Guardian is a Chrome extension designed to detect and mitigate these deceptive practices by analyzing user interfaces and interactions directly within the browser.

'Dark Patterns': The Case for Regulatory Pluralism

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2020
‘Dark patterns’ is a term commonly used by the web collective to describe a user interface that exploits users into doing something that they would not normally do. It is a coercive and manipulative design technique used by web designers when some sort of action is needed from a user - typically to begin the processing of personal data or indication of

From junk to function — How weak selection in eukaryotes builds new parts and drives genomic complexity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

Plant volatiles, rather than light, determine the nocturnal behavior of a caterpillar. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2006
Although many organisms show daily rhythms in their activity patterns, the mechanistic causes of these patterns are poorly understood. Here we show that host plant volatiles affect the nocturnal behavior of the caterpillar Mythimna separata. Irrespective

Integrating Dark Pattern Taxonomies

open access: yesCoRR
The problem of ``Dark Patterns" in user interface/user experience (UI/UX) design has proven a difficult issue to tackle. Malicious and explotitative design has expanded to multiple domains in the past 10 years and which has in turn led to multiple taxonomies attempting to describe them.

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...

L‐aspartate oxidase provides new insights into fumarate reduction in anaerobic darkness in Synechocystis sp. PCC6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Synechocystis strains deficient in succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) secrete more succinate than the WT under dark anaerobic conditions, supporting that SDH then primarily acts as SDH, not as a fumarate reductase. L‐aspartate oxidase (Laspo) from Synechocystis is functional under anaerobic conditions, reducing fumarate to succinate.

Dark patterns and consumer vulnerability

open access: yes, 2023
This project will investigate the effects of dark patterns on consumer vulnerability. Dark patterns are generally used to exploit specific behavioural “biases” (e.g., inattention, impatience, etc.), and the extent to which a consumers will fall prey to a
