Description
Plants are essential to human life. They release oxygen into the atmosphere for us to breathe. They also provide shelter, medicine, clothing, tools, and food. For many people, the food that is on their tables and in their supermarkets isn't given much thought. Where did it come from? What part of the plant is it? How does it relate to others in the plant kingdom? How do other cultures use this plant? The most many of us know about them is that they are at the supermarket when we need them for dinner (Nabhan, 2009) (Vileisis, 2008).

Description
This Creative Thesis is a popularization on the subject of Dark Patterns. Dark Patterns are deceptive functionality implemented online by developers seeking to manipulate users and benefit from their misfortune. They work by using psychological techniques to influence a user’s behavior, like by toying with a user’s emotion. I hope to spread the knowledge of Dark Patterns to as many people as possible. Once people know how Dark Patterns work, Dark Patterns will not be effective on them anymore.
