"It is legal to look in your neighbor's open window but nice people
do not do it. There is no more corrupting idea than the current one
that that which is legal is, ipso facto, ethical."

| The Ethics of the Digital Commons |
|
At Starfish Systems, we believe that in the age of the digital
commons, issues of ethics and computing are indivisible.
A properly constructed computing infrastructure not only meets the operational requirements of an organization, but allows it to express its mission and values. Conversely, an organization which is unclear about its mission and values may be at a needless disadvantage when it comes to building a sustainable computing environment. We think about these issues because we know we are part of a community. We want our clients to be successful, not just until the next quarterly report, but sustainably. That, to us, is simply good business. Accordingly, we offer some references to forums and organizations around which the discussion of ethics and computing is taking place. This list is not definitive, and is not intended to be prescriptive, but it can be useful to see what viewpoints are being debated by others. We welcome suggestions for references to be added to the list. |
