Information Ethics Today: Family Members, Citizens, Professionals, and Public Policy Makers

Defining Information Ethics Information ethics is a field of applied ethics that addresses the uses and abuses of information, information technology, and information systems for personal, professional, and public decision-making. (Elrod and Smith, 2005) ESTE. ICIE

Information Ethics-- Examples For example, may I download someone else’s intellectual property like pictures or music? Should librarians ever remove controversial books from the shelves or monitor users’ Internet searching? Under what circumstances should the results of scientific research be publicly available?
