Digital Ethics Essay
The coming and popularity of computers brings in a lot of issues. There are hackers, security "upgrades" and just plain cheating. Security of most large industries, is now automated. Is this good, or bad? Generally it makes things easier for employees and employers; it's also more cost effective. Definitely easier to hack into, if nothing else. Good points of automated security: • Cheaper, employees don't have to be paid to keep track. • Less mistakes, People are more likely to make mistakes than computers. Bad points of automated security: • Less job opportunities to people who need them. • Computers are easily hacked. • If the computer catches a virus, the files are erased.
If someone wants to break in, they can make the computer think they belong there, if they're good enough hackers. While as an actual person might question them, because they don't remember them being there before. A security camera can be taken out of commission easily; you paint it or trick the video playings. While if there was a live guard standing there with a gun, whatever it is, is much safer.
