This is a bit off-topic I guess, but I am growing so frustrated with dark patterns on the web and in life in general that I really want to build a cabin somewhere in a small rural area and throw my electronics in the trash. Just pay for basic services like electric. And only talk to people who I already know.
Buying a car? Full of dark patterns. Gap insurance, bs fees, bs options.
Buying internet? Full of dark patterns. Bundles cheaper than just net. WiFi for extra charge.
Web is just all dark patterns turned to 100.
If you don't know your stuff there are people everywhere just looking to take you for a ride, and sell you garbage you don't want or need.
