A Look at Rewards, Penalties and Virtual Imprisonment Through Digital Tools

Host Whit Andrews engages leading Gartner analysts in this podcast to explore the future of digital control. They discuss rewards, penalties and virtual imprisonment through digital tools, and what listeners may need to do to make their enterprise ready in various scenarios. As an example, leaving your house without your phone is increasingly an unimaginable action for many people who live rich digital lives. The control that governments can exert on the phone in some countries gives them the ability to influence people without needing to affect their physical selves. Such impacts will be available to commercial entities as the sophistication of user behavior monitoring grows in intensity.Two Gartner analysts who have authored Maverick publications are joined by one of the leaders of our Maverick program, Frank Buytendijk.
