Analysis 1: Technology has made it possible for users to share information or artifacts (books, songs, etc.) easily and at no cost. While this may seem good for users, it often harms the original creators of these works. Ethically, are the creators of technology responsible for preventing such illegal use of their creations? Defend your position fully (i.e. using multiple perspectives).

Analysis 2: In Dostoyevsky's Crime and Punishment the main character murders an old woman who has great wealth stored in her apartment. After killing her, he steals the money. He argues that (1) she is a malicious old woman (useless to herself and to society) that contributes no happiness to the world; and (2) her money would only fall into similar hands. He plans to use the money for good. Discuss the ethics of his actions and fully explain your thoughts.

Analysis 3: You are an eyewitness to a crime. A man has robbed a bank, but instead of keeping the money for himself, he donates it to a poor orphanage that can now afford to feed, clothe, and care for its children (i.e. the “Robin Hood” scenario). You know who committed the crime. What do you do? Fully support and analyze your decision from multiple perspectives. Consider why someone might answer it differently than you. Can you offer reasons for their views? Are any of these reasons persuasive?

NOTE: IT IS NOT NECESSARY FOR THE ANSWER TO BE LONG. A CONCISED AND STRAIGHT TO THE POINT ANSWER WILL BE OK. THANKS
