I’m aware the whole concept is a bit nebulous, but I suppose what I’m asking is whether the increasing acceptance of controlling users’ behaviour will lead designers, planners & regulators of all kinds to consider this a ‘normal’ way to do things: will it set precedents that will actually change our attitudes to interactions with products?
