摘要 社交媒体数据的使用在生态研究中变得越来越广泛，随着全球社交媒体使用的增加，这一趋势预计将持续下去。渔民在网上分享他们的活动细节，科学家们挖掘这些内容以帮助了解渔民活动，但关于利用社交媒体进行渔业研究的道德规范的信息却很少。本文在受影响的利益相关者和潜在的恶意原因的背景下讨论了在渔业研究中使用社交媒体发布数据的道德规范。总结了关于使用互联网上发布的渔民数据进行研究的版权和合理使用方面的法律立场。有人认为，研究本身并不严格意义上涉及人类受试者，因为不会向参与者征求新内容。用于研究目的的社交媒体文本和数据挖掘通常会受到法律的特殊豁免，以允许进行科学研究而不必担心受到起诉。然而，研究人员有专业责任来权衡研究收益与对相关主体（包括网站所有者）造成伤害的风险。最终，研究人员应不断重新评估其社交媒体研究的道德规范，因为目前道德审查委员会的指导可能有限，所有互联网内容抓取活动都应负责任地进行，以免个人数据受到损害。
ABSTRACT The use of social media data is becoming increasingly widespread in ecological research and this trend is expected to continue as social media use increases globally. Fishers share details of their activity online and scientists have mined this content to help understand fisher activity, yet little information exists on the ethics of exploiting social media for fisheries research. In this paper, the ethics of using social media published data in fisheries research is discussed in the context of affected stakeholders and potential causes of maleficience. The legal position with respect to copyright and fair use is summarized in relation to the use of fisher data published on the internet for research. It is argued that research per se does not sensu stricto involve human subjects where no new content is solicited from participants. Text and data mining of social media for research purposes generally receives special dispensation in law to allow scientific endeavor to be conducted without fear of prosecution. Nevertheless, researchers have a professional duty to weigh research benefits against the risk of causing harm to involved agents, including website owners. Ultimately researchers should continually reassess the ethics of their social media research as guidance from ethical review boards currently may be limited and all internet content scraping activity should be conducted responsibly such that personal data is not compromised.
