Abstract

If we live indeed in the early stages of what has been termed the “information society,” then it is clear that ethical concerns with regards to information are of central importance. This can explain the growing interest in issues of information ethics. The use of the word “ethics” seems to suggest that there is something wrong or bad and that this can be addressed by morally acceptable means.
