Spyware – the ethics of covert software     

Mathias?KlangEmail author 《Ethics and Information Technology》2004,6(3):193-202

Many computer users are happy to be oblivious of the workings within the machine and yet on some level it is important to know what is occurring therein. This paper discusses an unusual type of surveillance software which may be installed in many computers. The strange aspect of this software is that it has often been downloaded and installed by the user, but without her knowledge. The software is mainly designed to collect information about the user of the computer and relay this information back to the software manufacturer. The download, installation, data collection and data transfer all take place within the users own computer but very seldom with the users knowledge. It is the intention of this paper to describe the technology involved and thereafter discuss how this new technology is affecting the online privacy debate. The paper continues to discuss the basis for legitimacy of technology and also the current level of technological deterrents available. The paper concludes with a comparison of two approaches at resolving the current problem, via legislation or the market approach.  相似文献

Privacy Rights and Protection: Foreign Values in Modern Thai Context     

Krisana?KitiyadisaiEmail author 《Ethics and Information Technology》2005,7(1):17-26

The concept of privacy as a basic human right which has to be protected by law is a recently adopted concept in Thailand, as the protection of human rights was only legally recognized by the National Human Rights Act in 1999. Moreover, along with other drafted legislation on computer crime, the law on privacy protection has not yet been enacted. The political reform and the influences of globalization have speeded up the process of westernization of the urban, educated middle-class professionals. However, the strength of traditional Thai culture means that a mass awareness of the concept of privacy rights remains scarce. This paper explicates the Thai cultural perspective on privacy and discusses the influence of Buddhism on privacy rights, including the impacts of globalization and the influence of Western values on the country’s political and legal developments. The paper also discusses the legal provisions regarding privacy protection, and the debates on the smart ID cards policy and SIM cards registration for national security.  相似文献

隐私与跨文化交际     

翟石磊  李灏 《大连大学学报》2007,28(5):118-121

隐私作为一种价值观念和心理概念,在不同的文化中,人们有不同的解读。中国传统文化认为隐私是群体性的,显示其公众性和集体主义准则;圈内人之间不必太强调个人隐私。以美国为代表的西方文化认为隐私是维护个人独立性和体现自我存在价值的表现,显示其强烈的自我意识。经济全球化在促进世界经济融合互动的同时也极大的促进全球文化的交流和融合,跨文化交际中对隐私的认知和处理开始出现更多的一致和统一,这也为全球文化的交流和理解创造了好的契机。  相似文献
