I’m judge JimBob and I suddenly have a great interest in whatever I was told to because I ~~deeply care about the people~~ was definitely not given millions in stock for large companies

Is this the first anti-Dark-Pattern rule in existence? If so I’m hoping more like it comes soon.

While great news… Watch all of this get undone.

We get these headlines kinda regularly. Feds will do a thing that will save you!

It never gets implemented or is Swiss cheese lol

Big W change. EU should try to copy this idea.

I think EU law already prevents this, at least this has never been an issue in the multiple member states I lived in.
