I read his dishonesty book and now I wonder if any of it is actually wrong (although most of it made sense at the time)

There are few things out there as dangerous as arguments that "make sense." Lots of things can do that, all while being rather flawed.

I am curious to know more on this one. Odd to see so much pointing fingers happening. I'm guessing that isn't as rare as I would assume it is?

Is Dan Ariely implicated in any of this? My understanding was that he was cleared.

Sounds like it. Take a look at his wikipedia page. The Gino/Ariely paper that was retracted in 2021 has this to say:

> Dan Ariely was the only author to have had access to the data prior to transmitting it in its fraudulent form
