Book Review:
In this chapter it tells us how important issues in the ethics of computing. And it
gives steps in identifying problems to help people and also students like me to relate to
computing ethics. It also states here that stopping doesn’t patch up things that are missing
and doesn’t append to anything that has happened. It only adds up holes and diminish
what has been accomplished.
And in this chapter it also discussed unusual things like good being enemies and
preserving the rights of human to avoid unjustified harm and to increase benefits.
