Right now, it is confined to tricking people into installing other applications - a fairly benign trick. If your following this thread, I'd love to hear you explain how these patterns match the behaviors from the 80s. I think the facebook native patterns are really quite different; I've never seen anything like them on the Internet. Thank for you comment! Hi Ed,

The "deceptive navigation" pattern is the only worrisome one; what you are asserting is that successful applications consistently have a call to action that violates a user assumption about the nature of the interaction. I suspect that the non-Facebook best equivalent to that is the "click to accept license agreement that I didn't read".
