Bought this for the Green Product label. The fine print says they literally made it up.
The manufacturer Satya BNG uses an ISO 14021 Type II standard, which by definition means the company wrote its own environmental claims to get the logo. To top it off, the fine print explicitly states the auditing firm takes zero liability for verifying the data, and the entire certificate officially expired in May 2025. Pure corporate greenwashing to manufacture consumer trust.

Your car has been grading your driving and selling the report card
For a long time, careful drivers had a deal they could count on. Keep a clean record, skip the claims, and your insurance stayed reasonable. Your driving was judged on results. Did you crash? Did you get tickets? Did you cost the company money? If the answer was no, you were rewarded.
​
That deal got rewritten, and most people never got the memo. A lot of newer cars now keep a running log of how you drive (every hard brake, every fast start, every late-night trip). In case after case that log has been handed to insurance companies before the driver ever filed a claim. The scorecard grew a second page, and this one grades how you behave behind the wheel, moment to moment, then sells the result.
​
About 90% of new cars on the road collect information on how the person behind the wheel drives, according to Telemetry, an automotive advisory firm. Not all of it reaches insurers, and some drivers signed up on purpose for programs that promise a discount. But a good share of this happened to people who had no idea it was happening at all.

Home Depot listing multi-packs with the divided price per unit as the main price
On the main light bulbs page each listing can only show one price, and so it shows as $7.49 and this is what price indexers like Google pick up on as well. It's not until you open the product page, and look at the smaller print below the big price, that in reality it's $14.98 for the pack of two. They had another 4 pack of round bulbs as well for "$9.99" according to the clickbait price, and in reality it is $39 for the 4.

Samsung preselects 3 apps for installation but uses different UI so you don't realize they're already checked
This is after an OS update. I had to take a screenshot because this happens to me every single time my phone updates and I never realize how they get installed when I unselected everything.

I can't buy just two tickets on tickets.loft.de
Apparently, I "can't leave a seat empty", so if there are three seats next to each other I need to buy all three (although I see single seats available on other rows)

PlayStation permanently banned my son over false reports, wont even review the timing or context
My son has had his PSN account for seven years. Games, friends, all his progress, everything. It got permanently banned after a group of people deliberately timed false reports so they’d hit right after each previous suspension ended, making it look like something new happened every time. We have screenshots showing the pattern and the messages behind it.
We appealed and laid out everything, the timing, the coordination, all of it. PlayStation denied it without really addressing any of the context. Their appeal form only lets you use 300 characters, so there wasn’t even room to explain the situation properly in the first place.
Since then we’ve tried the BBB, the FTC, reached out to their support account on Twitter, sent a written letter, and even reached out to local news. Haven’t heard back from most of it.
He’s lost something he spent years building because a small group of people figured out how to game the reporting system, and at this point there’s no real path left to get it looked at again.
If anyone knows another way to actually get this in front of a real person at PlayStation, or has dealt with something similar and found anything that worked, I’d really appreciate hearing it.

Martin’s Grocery Store App Reversed Standard Toggle Design for Opting Out of Targeted Ads
I had to read this twice to make sure I wasn’t being an idiot. Then realized they probably intentionally designed it this way, so if the toggle is illuminated you think you have opted out. In fact, you’ve only opted out if it’s NOT illuminated. Jackasses.

Shakeshack website's menu forces people to look for a restaurant location before showing more detailed information
I was checking out their website out of curiosity and apparently if you want to know more about a food item then just an image a basic overview cost and calories you have to specify a restaurant first. From my understanding this is apparently relatively common too

Black X button is "accept".
I can't validate %100 percent but there is no accept button, instead where it is expected to be there is a huge black X button.
