RE: Dutch police utilize gamification techniques to induce citizens to investigate crime

in #news7 years ago

Personally, I have mixed feelings about the "gamification" of solving crimes. I think it is great for the public to be involved, but at the same time I have reservations about this system because it sounds so much like "Big brother" and the "Junior Spy League". I love the "pros", but am afraid of the possibility of future "cons".
One thing I don't like about "Gamification" is that most people don't know THEY are being "gamed".

Good points, people must know that something is "gamified" and what it actually is that they are doing
