Conference
Building Ethical Culture in Cyberspace:
Further Pursuit of a 'Ten Commandments' for Computer Ethics


 

This conference discussed the wide array of ethical frameworks that have been and need to be established within the fields of identity in cyberspace, the public perception of the Internet, the relationship between law and the Internet, privacy and computer practices, and medical records in databases. The conference also called for a means to inform children about computer ethics and eventually gave rise to the 1996 Kids and Computers conference.
