This document discusses the ethical and social impacts of information systems. It covers several topics, including privacy and intellectual property rights, accountability and control issues, system quality concerns, and the effects of technology on quality of life. The goals are to analyze ethical and social problems raised by information systems, identify the moral dimensions of the information society, and examine principles for conducting ethical analysis and designing corporate policies.
Ethical And Social Issues in MIS - Management Information SystemFaHaD .H. NooR
Information ethics has been defined as "the branch of ethics that focuses on the relationship between the creation, organization, dissemination, and use of information, and the ethical standards and moral codes governing human conduct in society".[1] The term information ethics was first coined by Robert Hauptman and used in the book Ethical challenges in librarianship. It examines the morality that comes from information as a resource, a product, or as a target.[2] It provides a critical framework for considering moral issues concerning informational privacy, moral agency (e.g. whether artificial agents may be moral), new environmental issues (especially how agents should behave in the infosphere), problems arising from the life-cycle (creation, collection, recording, distribution, processing, etc.) of information (especially ownership and copyright, digital divide, and digital rights). It is very vital to understand that librarians, archivists, information professionals among others, really understand the importance of knowing how to disseminate proper information as well as being responsible with their actions when addressing information.[3]
Information ethics has evolved to relate to a range of fields such as computer ethics,[4] medical ethics, journalism[5] and the philosophy of information.
Dilemmas regarding the life of information are becoming increasingly important in a society that is defined as "the information society". The explosion of so much technology has brought information ethics to a forefront in ethical considerations. Information transmission and literacy are essential concerns in establishing an ethical foundation that promotes fair, equitable, and responsible practices. Information ethics broadly examines issues related to ownership, access, privacy, security, and community. It is also concerned with relational issues such as "the relationship between information and the good of society, the relationship between information providers and the consumers of information".[6]
Information technology affects common issues such as copyright protection, intellectual freedom, accountability, privacy, and security. Many of these issues are difficult or impossible to resolve due to fundamental tensions between Western moral philosophies (based on rules, democracy, individual rights, and personal freedoms) and the traditional Eastern cultures (based on relationships, hierarchy, collective responsibilities, and social harmony).[7] The multi-faceted dispute between Google and the government of the People's Republic of China reflects some of these fundamental tensions.

Watch the webinar on-demand: https://info.truste.com/roi-of-privacy-webinar.html
When building a case for privacy investment, privacy pros need to arm themselves with as many ROI metrics of their privacy program as possible. How to get those metrics and how to present them (whether they tie to direct or indirect dollars) is an art form that everyone can work on perfecting.
IAPP and TRUSTe collaborated in the on-demand webinar to discuss the recently published IAPP report, “Getting to the ROI of Privacy”, which offers some persuasive reasons a solid privacy program is worth paying for. Emily Leach, CIPP/US IAPP’s Knowledge Manager were joined by privacy leaders to share their key insights.
