Ethics, pernicious technology, and the "technological argument"
pp. 89-98
Abstract
Ethics encompasses beliefs about preferable conduct, attitudes that contribute to this, norms and rules that orient or guide, and theories that analyze, examine, deepen, criticize, and justify these beliefs, attitudes, and norms. An ethical theory is, therefore, a rational endeavor directed toward practical activity conducive to preferred conduct.
