If information governance is meant to “ensure appropriate behavior” how will we apply that to “things?” Things don’t really behave if you’re applying the traditional inferences of the word. Sure, they can be said to exhibit certain behaviors, and certainly those behaviors are preprogrammed into them, but even then we obviate the need for governance. Programmed devices hardly need an accountability framework for appropriate behavior if they’re already preprogrammed to behave in specific ways.

"The problems of our economy have occurred not as an outgrowth of laissez-faire, unbridled competition.
They have occurred under the guidance of federal agencies, and under the umbrella of federal regulations."
Senator Ted Kennedy, in defending trucking deregulation in 1978.
