Ethical Use of Computer Technology

Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Engineering and Technology - Year 2013, Vol 1, Issue 4

Abstract

Virtually every tool is accompanied with “how to use” and how to maximize use in a bid to minimize possible problems or technological setback that it might bring. The study of computer ethics is a way of generating and reasoning out policies that would guide us through an effective use of the technology. Moreover, to climb the height of efficient and safe use of our computer tools, we need to address surrounding ethical issues. When we place a value on what you do with a computer tool which will let us know that the act is good or bad, we are already discussing its ethics. Unfortunately, computer ethics, as important as it is do not receive due attention in our personal and corporate world. They do not really matter and this is why many organizations would not test professionals like a secretary on his awareness about these things during a recruitment exercise. Whether we like it or not, computer ethics concerns every one of us who come in contact with computer technology.
