It is also the first book of its kind to consider these issues from a global perspective, introducing ethical theories from multiple cultures. It further utilizes examples from around the world, such as the publication of 'the Mohammed Cartoons'; diverse understandings of what 'privacy' means in "Facebook" or "MySpace"; why pirating CDs and DVDs may be justified in developing countries; and, culturally-variable perspectives on sexuality and what counts as 'pornography'.Readers and students thus acquire a global perspective on the central ethical issues of digital media, including privacy, copyright, pornography and violence, and the ethics of cross-cultural communication online. The book is designed for use across disciplines - media and communication studies, computer science and informatics, as well as philosophy. It is up-to-date, accessible and student- and classroom-friendly: each topic and theory is interwoven throughout the volume with detailed sets of questions that foster careful reflection, writing, and discussion into these issues and their possible resolutions. Each chapter further includes additional resources and suggestions for further research and writing. 000345592 650_0 $$aDigital media$$xMoral and ethical aspects. 000345592 85200 $$bgen$$hQA76.9.M65$$iE87$$i2009 000345592 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:345592$$pGLOBAL_SET 000345592 980__ $$aBIB 000345592 980__ $$aBOOK
