Fearful Fun

On today’s episode we’ll cover some unethical uses of gamification.

Gamification is supposed to be fun. That’s why businesses, organizations and individuals use it on a daily basis. Why else would someone play games? But what are the ethics of gamification? What stops one business or organization from doing something nefarious? Is there a limit to gamification?  Who should govern gamification? Should it be up to academics, the government, or individuals to police how gamification is used?
