Simultaneous Access to Le Monde Account Blocked

Le Monde's single-device access policy is blocking access due to simultaneous logins from multiple devices; users must either log out from other devices, create individual accounts if multiple users share the subscription, or upgrade their subscription to accommodate multiple users.

Cognitive Concepts

3/5

Framing Bias

The repetitive nature of the message framing, constantly emphasizing the single-device restriction, could create a sense of urgency or annoyance, potentially pressuring users into taking immediate action. The repeated question, "How to stop seeing this message?", is also a framing choice that guides the user towards the solutions presented.

1/5

Language Bias

The language used is relatively neutral, although the repeated emphasis on "another person (or you)" might subtly imply suspicion or distrust towards the user.

2/5

Bias by Omission

The message omits information on how to effectively log out from other devices, focusing primarily on solutions that involve account creation or upgrades. This could frustrate users seeking a simple solution.

3/5

False Dichotomy

The message presents a false dichotomy: either upgrade the account or ensure only one device is used. It overlooks the possibility that a user might unintentionally be logged into multiple devices or might face technical difficulties.
