As I understand it, @pluralistic’s term describes a quite specific multi-step process, not simply "making things worse”.

I propose “encruftening” for "adding unrequested and undesirable features to an existing product”, which covers "AI", blockchain & whatever other horrors they have in store for us. Other suggestions?
