Here you can see a 4-point bending test where the iPhone Air is loaded with 130 lbs (≈59 kg, ~578 N). Once the load is released, the device returns to its original condition: titanium provides remarkable strength in the elastic range, allowing the phone to fully recover its shape. No plastic — and therefore permanent — deformations are observed.

🛒 Flipkart Leads the Way in Dark Pattern Compliance
1️⃣ What Are Dark Patterns?
Dark patterns are deceptive design tricks in websites or apps that push users into making choices they might not otherwise make.
Common examples:
- ⏳ False urgency – “Only 2 left! Hurry!”
- 🛍 Basket sneaking – Adding items/services at checkout without consent
- 😔 Confirm shaming – Guilt-tripping users into accepting offers
💡 India’s CCPA (Central Consumer Protection Authority) has officially banned 13 such patterns under the Guidelines for Prevention and Regulation of Dark Patterns, 2023.

2️⃣ The Government’s Crackdown
- May 28, 2025 – Union Consumer Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi met with major tech & e-commerce players (Amazon, Swiggy, Zomato, Flipkart, MakeMyTrip, Meta, WhatsApp, Apple, etc.) urging them to eliminate dark patterns.
- June 5, 2025 – CCPA issued an advisory under Section 18(1) of the Consumer Protection Act, 2019:
- All e-commerce platforms must self-audit their interfaces.
- Remove any of the 13 banned patterns.
- Submit compliance reports within 3 months.
