LBS as Vectors of Influence

Maximilian Gartner

Keywords: Autonomy, Privacy, LBS, Persuasive Technology, Nudging

Abstract. Due to their technical capabilities and use-cases, LBS can impose autonomy constraints on individuals, both through direct interaction and via indirect means. This essay outlines four main interaction characteristics that constitute LBS as a vector of influence and contextualizes them by mapping them onto a pragmatic framework of autonomy.
