emerging digital technologies (e.g. data mining,
machine learning, sensor technology, and
service automation), we illustrate that while
these new technologies carry the potential to
further digitalize service provision and fulfill the
democratic goals of digital government,
authorities can apply the same technology to
restrict, control, and surveil citizens. Based on a
critical discussion on what digitalization might
entail for society, we identify problem areas
arising from this development and propose a
research agenda for understanding this
phenomenon further.
