Introduction to Computing

Online communication, the ethical and responsible use of computers

Executive Summary

This research explores the ethical responsibilities of computer users in the modern digital age, where computing devices play a central role in everyday life. While computers enable efficiency and problem solving, they do not inherently understand ethical behaviour, placing responsibility on users to act appropriately. The report examines key ethical challenges such as privacy, intellectual property, and responsible online communication, highlighting their societal and organisational implications. The objective is to analyse these issues and propose approaches that encourage ethical and secure computing practices.
