Is the little descriptive icon there the whole time? Is it there only when you try to use the gesture? It might be malicious if there was no warning at all and it just does it… but to me it seems like they’re just trying to apply intuitive design practices in their mobile site design.
Not everything is an attack, even if one feels attacked.
I think they’re much more likely ignorant to this than malicious.
A website that big is probably malicious, as I feel like iPhone has the same gesture (don’t quote me on that)

Never heard of dark patterns? There’s a history of websites doing shitty things like this on purpose
I have, I think ignorance of a niche android setting is far more likely.
