About the the Forum
The Ethics and Technology Forum is a perfectly ordinary (though reasonably full-featured) web-based bulletin board system (BBS). It exists for two main purposes: 1) to provide a forum for students in PHIL 236 at the University of Saskatchewan to discuss and ask questions about the course and, as a separate mandate, 2) to provide a forum for anyone who happens to be interested in discussing issues related to ethics, philosophy and technology. It's an experiment: I have no idea how popular or how useful it will turn out to be.
A Mini-FAQ:
  • Anyone can register to take part in the Forum. You don't have to be a student in PHIL 236.
    You do not have to use your real name. You must use a real, working e-mail address to register, but this doesn't have to be your "official" University address. If you are concerned about remaining anonymous, you can always obtain an e-mail address from

147. Ethics [Internet Encyclopedia Of Philosophy]
Covers metaethics, normative ethics and applied ethics in depth.
http://www.utm.edu/research/iep/e/ethics.htm
Ethics The field of ethics, also called moral philosophy, involves systematizing, defending, and recommending concepts of right and wrong behavior. Philosophers today usually divide ethical theories into three general subject areas: metaethics, normative ethics, and applied ethics. Metaethics investigates where our ethical principles come from, and what they mean. Are they merely social inventions? Do they involve more than expressions of our individual emotions? Metaethical answers to these questions focus on the issues of universal truths, the will of God, the role of reason in ethical judgments, and the meaning of ethical terms themselves. Normative ethics takes on a more practical task, which is to arrive at moral standards that regulate right and wrong conduct. This may involve articulating the good habits that we should acquire, the duties that we should follow, or the consequences of our behavior on others. Finally, applied ethics involves examining specific controversial issues, such as abortion, infanticide, animal rights, environmental concerns, homosexuality, capital punishment, or nuclear war. By using the conceptual tools of metaethics and normative ethics, discussions in applied ethics try to resolve these controversial issues. The lines of distinction between metaethics, normative ethics, and applied ethics are often blurry. For example, the issue of abortion is an applied ethical topic since it involves a specific type of controversial behavior. But it also depends on more general normative principles, such as the right of self-rule and the right to life, which are litmus tests for determining the morality of that procedure. The issue also rests on metaethical issues such as, "where do rights come from?" and "what kind of beings have rights?"

  • 152. Computer Hacking And Ethics
    Paper about developing ethics in teenage hackers.
    http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~bh/hackers.html
    Computer Hacking and Ethics
    Brian Harvey
    University of California, Berkeley [A slightly different version of this paper was written for the ``Panel on Hacking'' held by the Association for Computing Machinery in April, 1985. Thanks to Batya Friedman, Donn Parker, and Carter Sanders for their comments on early drafts.] [Neal Patrick] said he and his friends, who named themselves the ``414s'' after the Milwaukee area code, did not intend to do any damage and did not realize they were doing anything unethical or illegal. In fact, when asked [at a Congressional subcommittee hearing] at what point he questioned the ethics of his actions, he answered, ``Once the FBI knocked on the door.'' It's no secret that a mature sense of ethics is something a person develops over time. Parents are supposed to exercise authority over their children because the children are not expected to know how to make certain decisions for themselves. We have a juvenile court system separate from the adult criminal court system because we believe that a young person is not capable of criminal intent in the same sense that an adult is capable of it.

    By: Jonathan Detwiler Writen: February 6, 2001
    Can I kill an animal Ethically?
    An alternative argument presented against hunting is based on the way some hunters do things. Some concerns are how some hunters trespass, litter, dispose of killed animals inappropriately, and how hunters behave in public. The land available to hunters has been decreasing for just those reasons. Land owners feel like they can't trust the hunters. They are concerned hunters will leave gates open, destruct property, poach, and be unsafe. Anti-hunting people will also point out things hunters do in public. Among those things are, sticking bloody deer on top of vans, leaving the tailgate down so that everyone can see the deer, and even the image that most hunters are dumb rednecks. The concerned people just feel that people who hunt tend to be jerks and they don't won't to have bums out handling guns and killing things.
    The final major argument against hunting and the most popular is that hunting is just too dangerous. This argument is inspired by the many stories the media presents about hunting accidents. One example of a gun accident comes from Oregon. Ironically, the example involves two brothers that survived the Oregon High School shooting in 1998. Richard Peek Junior, 19, who had is arm shot in the school shootings was hunting with his 17 year old brother Robert. Thinking they heard a deer the boys ed their guns and knelt down. Then, either by his hand slipping on the hammer or his gun getting caught on his clothes, Robert's gun went off. The bullet went directly through his brothers head killing him instantly. Terrible stories like that provoke thought. Many view hunting as just to dangerous. They don't believe people are just not responsible enough to hunt safely.

    155. The Secular Sphinx, From Skeptic Vol. 4, No. 2
    Michael Schermer explores provisional ethics.
    http://www.skeptic.com/04.2.shermer-sphinx.html
    From Skeptic vol. 4, no. 2, 1996, pp. 78-87. For more information, visit www.skeptic.com THE SECULAR SPHINX
    The Riddle of Ethics Without Religion By Michael Shermer "Nothing is more seductive for man than his freedom of conscience, but nothing is a greater cause of suffering. And behold, instead of giving a firm foundation for setting the conscience of man at rest for ever, Thou didst choose all that is exceptional, vague and enigmatic....Instead of taking possession of man's freedom, Thou didst increase it, and burdened the spiritual kingdom of mankind with its sufferings for ever." Fyodor Dostoevsky, "The Grand Inquisitor," Brothers Karamozov , Book V, Chapter 5.
    On Friday, May 24, 1996, the 103rd Archbishop of Canterbury (starting with St. Augustine in 597), spiritual leader of over 70 million Anglicans, told 425 civic, business, and religious leaders at the Los Angeles Biltmore Hotel that "secularism" is the cause of much of the West's moral woes. Paradoxically, this was followed by a litany of "unspeakable atrocities against innocent people" committed in the name of religion, as in Bosnia and against the Christian minority in Islamic Sudan. The Archbishop-the Most Reverend George L. Carey-told his audience that only faith can stop these atrocities (Stammer, p. 1):
      How else can momentum be found for combating the worst excesses of poverty and inequality around the world? How else can we find the self-restraint in the interest of future generations in order to save our environment? How else can we combat the malignant power of exclusive nationalism and racism? All this requires the dynamic power of commitment, faith and love. The privatized morality of "what works for me" will not do.

    Changing the Face of an Epidemic: Screening Pregnant Women for HIV
    by Jeffrey P. Kahn, Ph.D., M.P.H.
    Director, Center for Bioethics University of Minnesota Last week a panel appointed by the influential Institute of Medicine issued a report recommending that all pregnant women be tested for the AIDS virus as part of routine prenatal care. There are important reasons to undertake the first widespread HIV screening of a part of the population. Most important, testing during pregnancy allows for early drug treatment that can substantially reduce the risk of passing the infection from mother to child, and offers women the best chance to fight their own infection. But the panel also came to more worrisome conclusions in order to implement across-the-board testing of all pregnant women two recommendations with ethical implications. First: members suggested that pre-test counseling requirements could and should be relaxed, and second: that unless women specifically objected they should be tested for HIV. What's your opinion on this?
