Introduction

Digital ethics covers ethical issues to do with the ever-increasing role being played by data, AI and the internet. It's what Chris Avelise researches at Oxford's Institute for Ethics in AI. Is there something special about digital ethics? We have medical ethics, practical ethics, ethics of biology. There's an ethics of everything. Nigel Warburton: Digital ethics is a relatively new subplotch of moral philosophy. David Edmond: The term digital ethics didn't exist when Philosophy Bites launched in 2007.
