this is bad UI design. not a dark pattern.
nowadays, i smile away whenever a lazy loading UI gets in my way. and i end up tapping or clicking on it. i never go back to do what i was doing when i was rudely interrupted.
i have seen it everywhere.

Even Google's front page search does it. I have to wait 3 seconds before clicking anything because it might move from under me
