What is Computer Ethics?
 
Deborah G. Johnson: Respect for Proprietary Rights
Richard Stallman: Sharing
Eugene H. Spafford: Something irrelevant - the general public too uneducated
Peter G. Neumann: Must be replaced by security
John Weckert: A complex matter
James H. Moor: A matter of privacy
Swedish Banks: Good taste
Krystyna Górniak-Kocikowska: Something global
NSF–Ethics of Human Enhancements: Something that lags (far) behind
Council of Europe: Computer ethics?

High speed computers- privacy
Computers memory undercuts human fraility to assist privacy
Greased information is available for any purpose
Core values= a value humans and cultures need for survival.
Privacy is not a core value, but it expresses a core value
Normative privacy-protected by ethical, legal conventional
norms
Normative privacy often natural as well
James H Moor
Views and principles
 
Restricted access view:
focuses what to concider when
developing policies for protecting privacy
The publicity principle:
rules and conditions that govern private
situations should be clear and known to the persons affected
by them
The adjustment principle: 
If the private circum stanses justify a
change in parameters of a private situation, then the
alteration should be an explicit and public part of rules and
conditions that govers the private situation
 
 
Ethics is implicit in this paper:
 
The harm caused by the discloser will be so much less
than the harm prevented that an impartial person
would permit breach in this and in morally similar
situations
Ethics in this paper- implicit and ends up in dilemman
of what is best, right, wrong and so on
undefined
 
Human Enhancement [HE]- technology into our bodies
Definitions of HE: Changes the structure and function of the
body
Discusses grey zones- when is it HE and when it is not?
Questions what is morally problematic and what is not
Uses the concepts ethic and moral without defining them
Ethics in this paper-just uses, no defintions
Ethics of human enhancements
Questions to discuss
 
What are the concequences of differences in
understandings of ethics?
 
Can technology and technology design be used to
increase ethical quality and reduce negative
concequences of differences in conceptual
interpretations?
 
Old and new ways of thinking
 
With the virtualization of data, the way we are
thinking and interacting with it changes.
The question about harm that is done when
“violating” virtual property/artifacts is much harder
to answer.
Those authors that try to find analogies in the material
world, struggle to make their argumentation coherent.
 
Is a new ethical framework needed?
Perception of data
 
Personal
Information
 
Creation
 
The issue of
privacy
 
The issue of
property
