Summary

Digital Ethics Issues explores the complex intersection of technology and politics, particularly how nations grapple with challenges like data privacy, misinformation, and ethical hacking. In today's interconnected world, these issues directly influence democratic processes and personal freedoms. Did you know that the European Union's GDPR and California's CCPA are attempts to regulate data privacy, reflecting varied approaches to internet policy? The book argues that understanding both technology and its ethical and political implications is crucial for effective policy-making.

 
The book begins by laying a foundation of key concepts, then examines varying national approaches to online regulation, comparing the policies of the United States, China, and the European Union. Through case studies of significant data breaches and misinformation events, it dissects ethical failures and political ramifications.

 
The book uniquely offers a comparative analysis of national strategies, providing insights into the effectiveness of different approaches to digital governance and offering valuable lessons for policymakers. Ultimately, it equips readers to navigate the ethical dilemmas of the digital age.

Welfare of Future Children The:...

Rebecca Bennett

Narrated by Rebecca Bennett, this open access practical guide to reproductive ethics navigates the complex subject of the policy around IVF treatment and disability screening based on the concerns around the welfare of future children. It focuses on 3 questions in order to examine these often complex philosophical issues:
· Should we allow prospective parents using IVF to implant an embryo with a condition considered to be a disability?
· Is routine screening for Down syndrome in pregnancy ethically acceptable, even if there is evidence that individuals may feel pressure to accept this screening?
· Are we justified in attempting to evaluate the potential parenting ability of those trying to access fertility treatment (e.g. disabled people or individuals with past criminal convictions) and prevent access in some cases?
Rebecca Bennett walks the listener through different answers to these questions, exploring issues such as whether it is ever morally wrong to reproduce, whether we have a moral obligation to try and bring the ‘best’ children we can into existence and how we can assess the quality of future lives.There is, of course, no consensus about what the ‘right’ answers are to these questions, however answers are needed.
This area of policy and regulation is one that, Bennett argues, is heavily influenced by intuition, social norms and bias. The Welfare of Future Children invites us to question these norms and to come to a position on these issues that emphasises reason, transparency and accountability.
