Finally, signs of a real crackdown on dark-patterns. Banning kids from social and chat does nothing but allow platforms to continue exploiting Adults with dark-patterns. Its the dark-patterns that are the problem and what should actually be banned.

Ich traute meinen Augen nicht. #TikTok wird endlich wegen dessen #darkpattern von der #EU am Schlawutzel gepackt.
Ich will mich noch nicht zu früh freuen, aber vielleicht gibt's ja doch noch in all dem gesellschaftlich auseinandertreibenden gute Nachrichten.
Vielleicht wird die Plattform auch endlich grundsätzlich von seinem schrecklichen Algorithmus und Slot-Machine #Dopamin Dealership befreit.
Let's #hope for the best.

@giacomo the features don't do anything until you interact with them (like in this screenshot).
At this point, a local model is downloaded, and the processing is done entirely on device, preserving privacy.
Same goes for translation. It happens on device whereas most other browsers send the text off-device.
So people can trigger a download by error clicking on that huge popup wide button, right?
Isn't that a well studied example of #DarkPattern?
How many times such button will be shown? Each time a user create a new tab or only the first time?
Each time you raise the probability of erroneous click!
