Hi there I need to write an ethic issue in technology but I am struggling to choose a topic. I am asking about the possibility of "Ethical issues" topics that is tread common in technology. Would anyone can give me some options to choose from. Thank you.
Answer)
Ethical issues can occur in technology in areas such as mentioned
below:
The devices and interfaces which are Siri, amazon echo, Alexa, etc
are devices or applications which are voice assistants to the users
and this has led to a market of innovation where several devices
and applications are coming up to fill this space. But there are
some ethical problems which Siri, amazon echo, Alexa, etc can have
in their operations such as security, privacy, secrecy.
The whistleblowing is the act of an employee of a company which
reveals the illegal or the unethical activities which the employees
reveal to outsiders or agencies leaking information which are
supposed to stay within the company. There are many moral and
ethical dilemma which can be faced by the whistle-blowing.
Another case, social media does provide ethical threats to society
as social media has much information and contains a lot of
opportunities. Ethically using these opportunities and making use
of social media, will make it very useful and efficient. But
unethically using it will create many privacy problems for all the
connected people.
