This document discusses ethics in information and communication technologies (ICT). It analyzes how ICT has developed and consolidated in society. While ICT allows for quick information sharing, its use raises ethical issues depending on how it impacts socioeconomic gaps and private gain. The document examines ICT usage through the lenses of three ethical theories: Kant's categorical imperative theory finds current ICT use in developing countries unethical; utilitarian theory could consider ICT's use ethical if it improves many people's lives; and Rawls' justice as fairness theory views current ICT use as totally unethical. In conclusion, ICT itself is not inherently good or bad - its ethics depend on how it is applied and minimum standards may need

1. ETHICS
IN THE
ICT

2. OBJECTIVES
 Explain and analyze how they have developed the
information technology and communications.
Show an ethical vision of the use of ICT

3. CONSOLIDATION OF ICT IN SOCIETY
 Today, these technologies are
part of virtually all companies,
both public and private.
 allow store and transmit
information quickly and easily.
 Individuals have become so
accustomed to their use, which in
its transformation to the term
information society, has taken to
express the widespread use of
these technologies currently

4. IMPORTANCE TO BE CHARGED AT
PRESENT.
Large increase in technological innovation (development
of fiber optics, digital technology, among others) which
has allowed internet access diversify.
Changes in the legislative framework, directly or
indirectly, have encouraged the use of these technologies.
Increased interest from the authorities (policies to apply
to society).

5. USE OF THE ICT FROM THE POINT
OF VIEW ETHICS
 The diversity of views is what has caused a major
controversy about whether ICTs are being used in an ethical
way.
 ICTs are being used to increase the existing socioeconomic
gap.

6. ETHICAL THEORIES USED IN
YOUR STUDY
KANT
 Developed in 1724-1804
 It was made with formulations of his
categorical rule, where you can find the
guidelines for analyzing whether an act or
conduct is ethical or not.
 This theory is widely used in the economic
study of ethical situations and obviously the
use of ICT has an impact in this area
 The use that is being given to ICTs in
developing countries, is like a mechanic to
gain access comfortably, to try and increase
sales between classes with more economic
power.
 In conclusion the uses of ICT are not
ethically used from the point of vita Kant,
since it really is seeking private gain instead
of global
THEORY UTILITARIAN
 It was mainly developed by Jeremy
Bentham (1948-1932) and John Stuart
Mill (1806-1873)
 This theory is based on reason, in
order to achieve a future benefit
 This ethical system is based on the
mode of action depends on the
consequences
 Applying this theory to the use of
technology, has the potential to
improve the socioeconomic situation of
a greater number of people, you could
consider its implementation and use in
serious ethical if mime.
THEORY OF THE DISTRIBUTIVE
JUSTICE AND JUSTICE AS FAIRNESS
 It developed in the twentieth century by
John Rawls (1921-2002).
 Is properly adjusted to the environment
generated by tic, since the study of
remote desirability, especially in the
field of social and political
organization.
 In short, from the point of view of the
theory d justice as fairness, the use
made of these technologies can have a
total lack of ethics

7. CONCLUSION
Based on the three ethical theories used it can be said that ICTs themselves
are good depending on the use made of, given that utilization can generate
unethical situations, requiring that before promoting the development of
society of information in a country, a number of minimum requirements to
avoid actions that may lead to bad uses thereof are established.
