We have a massive consent issue across tech. Particularly in SEO Marketing.
I saw it when I started the communications workshop with NGI. The instructor spoke about that marketing kiss and how the consent pop-up shows trustworthiness.
Look around you at our Web, our news sites, at YouTube, at Facebook even at our own legislators sites. Look at those cookie pop ups.
People can't meaningfully consent to that. They should not have to keep accounting for dark patterns.
