Dark Patterns: How design seeks to control us | Sally Woellner | TEDxSydney

Designer Sally Woellner takes us into a world of Dark Patterns, highlighting how the websites and apps we use daily have very specific, and sometimes dangerous, intentions brought to life through UX/UI and graphic design.
During this insightful talk, Sally advocates for design to be more transparent in hopes of designing a better world. Sally Woellner is currently a Product Design Group Lead at Canva. She is an experienced creative leader and designer, who loves working in product design, branding, advertising, and a huge range of digital media-and has been recently recognised as one of the Women Leading Tech by B&T and Google and is one of Australia's leading experts in creative technologies. She previously led the design direction of a campaign for World Vision that garnered worldwide attention and eventually led to all 119 children on Nauru to be relocated within 6 months of the campaign going live, which solved a 5 year problem. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

If we understand the mechanism and motives of the group mind, it is now possible to control and regiment the masses according to our will without them knowing it. ~ Edward Bernays

You’ll be surprised. It’s not the designers. It’s business folks. Designers are only executing directives coming from business folks.

this proves mind control is real
it's like one of those children's book stories were the smart guy sits on a horse and puts grass on the end of the sick for the horse to chase because he knows what the horse wants
in real life we are the horse while these big corporates are the riders
