Docker argues that AI agent governance is fundamentally a developer experience and trust problem, not just security. Adoption of new capabilities (cloud, containers, CI/CD, now agents) follows a pattern: capability arrives first, trust arrives later, adoption follows trust. Organizations resist agents not because they lack capability but because governance and isolation controls are missing, creating a trust bottleneck that slows adoption.
