Computer Ethics and Internet Values

            "It is not enough that you should understand about applied science in order that your work may increase man's blessings. Concern for the man himself and his fate must always form the chief interest of all technical endeavors; concern for the great unsolved problems of the organization of labor and the distribution of goods in order that the creations of our mind shall be a blessing and not a curse to mankind" (Albert Einstein).
             Computer Ethics.
             The emergence of computers as special technologies has resulted in key ethical issues. Computer ethics can be categorized as intellectually friendly and very important. Computer ethics is considered as the exploration of the nature and the social effects of computer technology. In that perspective, computer technology gives the subjection of the field that is associated with the concerns of networks in those directives. The typical problem that emerges from the computer ethics is depicted since there is the presence of a policy vacuum asserting the essence in which technology has been defined and also enacted. It is clear that computers give us the information needed on the capacities and that also provides some relevant choices for the action based on the ethical values. This articulates no policies presumed from the conduct in the diverse situations that exist from the policies that ought, not to be enough in that directive. .
             The main role played from the computer ethics, in that case, is mainly to define the steps or what should be done in situations such as putting in place some policies that give a guideline for those actions. However, some of the ethical positions show the essence of some particular individuals in society. This makes the computer ethics to make some consideration on both social policies and social policies articulated for the ethical use of computer technology.
             Making some clarifications within the coherent conceptual framework as well as the formulation of a policy for employing the computer technology can be difficult.
