信息和通信技术的伦理问题 信息通信技术很重要，因为它们可以对人类自由、幸福以及人们过上美好生活的能力产生重大影响。它们还具有功能性意义，因为它们可以确定是否使用技术以及是否可以发挥其积极潜力。由于这些原因，政策制定者有兴趣找出这些问题是什么以及如何解决这些问题。制定对道德问题敏感的 ICT 政策的最佳方式是在技术生命周期的早期阶段积极主动地解决此类问题。本文以此为出发点，讨论如何获得新兴信息通信技术伦理方面的知识。它开发了一种超越既定未来方法论的方法论，以解决道德问题的困难性质。作者概述了如何将新兴信息通信技术的描述用于伦理分析。
Ethical issues of information and communication technologies ICTs are important because they can have significant effects on human liberty, happiness, and people's ability to lead a good life. They are also of functional interest because they can determine whether technologies are used and whether their positive potential can unfold. For these reasons, policy makers are interested in finding out what these issues are and how they can be addressed. The best way of creating ICT policy that is sensitive to ethical issues pertain to being proactive in addressing such issues at an early stage of the technology life cycle. The present paper uses this position as a starting point and discusses how knowledge of ethical aspects of emerging ICTs can be gained. It develops a methodology that goes beyond established futures methodologies to cater for the difficult nature of ethical issues. The authors outline how the description of emerging ICTs can be used for an ethical analysis.
