Episode #16 - Dark UX Patterns: Deep and Philosophical Discussion with Doug Collins and Pavel Samsonov

Thank you so much for tuning in! Do we have something awesome for you! We got together with Doug Collins and Pavel Samsonov late last night to chat about Dark UX Patterns since these things have been getting out of hand lately and they are not always necessarily black and white. We have a lot of research based insights from Doug and rather interesting philosophical thoughts from Pavel. We really hope you enjoy it!

Here are some of the materials that have been mentioned in our conversation:
