Administrator Dilemma
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. Nick Klaws is well within his rights - both by policy and ethics - to suspend Joe Blow's account for failing to uphold university protocol that states school computers are to be used only for school-related reasons. That Joe was conducting personal business by earning money from a school computer gave Nick enough reason to pull rank and remove his privileges. Surveillance, even though significantly intrusive, plays an integral role in saving society from itself, given the fact that people like Joe are taking less and less responsibility for their own actions and how they may create a damaging influence upon others, a pertinent reason why this is a computer ethics problem and not just a common ethics problem.
