Amazing content Kerv, what do you think about dark pattern? Is there any limits to use dark patterns or the designer should completely avoid it? I personally think dark patterns should be completely avoided to retain long term user base for our product.

Most of the time designers are forced to include them by the organisations they are working for. That's really hard topic, because on one hand you would like to be ethical in your practice, and on the other you would like to have a job (if you aren't freelancing, but even then your client may force you to do some of them). So it can be hard on designers conscience if they work for companies or clients supporting unethical practices... Because most of the time business is business...
