Ethics and the Computer Economy

We live in a Computer Economy, but we don't know how that works. Because we don't know how the Computer works.

Back in the Eighties, we thought the answer was simple: it made money! Now we have gone through a few booms and busts, we aren't so sure. 

Now Software has taken off, It looks like this is what it does: it makes People make Software! 

How does Ethics fit into this? It doesn't. And this what we have to say: the Computer doesn't care about Ethics. 

What about the Computer Economy (which includes Computer People)? That depends on the People.

So go out there and behave yourselves!
