According to the definition of ethics, it can be
connected to the norms or custom of the society. What could be ethical to one could be unethical
to another. If this is the case, in which ethics seem to be
subjective in nature, why is there a need to study computer ethics at
all? Support your opinion with facts.
Even if the word “ethical” varies from
place to place, there is still a need to study computer ethics because this course
serves a guideline to all computer science students, because we are sometimes
mislead due to external forces-forces from the society. We really need this
course especially nowadays that pornography invade some of the networking sites,
specifically facebook, if only people are properly guided and were exposed to
computer ethics we don’t have the hard time controlling the wide spread of
pornographic pictures and videos. We must be strict enough like in the United States the focus has
been largely on controlling pornography over the Internet. And according to the
news I’ve read that the administrators of the networking site- facebook are
planning to ban Filipino users from using the said site due to high increase in
pornography, they also found out that this high rate of pornography is from the
country Philippines. We don’t have to wait for that time, because we all know
that facebook is of great help to all of us in many ways, we just have to be
responsible enough, responsible for everything that we do.
