. If they don't, then they're not UI experts.
They're not. "Usability Experts" these days are using "UX", to differentiate them from the people who actually understand such useless concepts as "use cases" and "suitability to purpose."
Maybe Dice ought to hire some of those "usability" experts advertised on their main site.
Who do you think came up with the changes in the first place?

I don't know about France or Norway, but doesn't the UK, at least England, have exactly that what with the ever growing surveillance camera coverage?

Back when I worked as a helldesk jockey for a medical lab, I was told by my supervisor that the helpdesk PC's screensaver couldn't be changed because of HIPAA...
