Commandments Students Violate the Most

russelma1 — 2024-02-19 02:45:57 UTC

I believe students violation a few of the Ten Commandments. One of the most violated commandment is " do not use to harm people". Many young teens and adults use social media to impact fear. People use the internet to cause harm everyday by threatening others etc. Students also violate commandment 6, many students use resources they have not paid for because it can be expensive to purchase. Some softwares are needed and should not be so expensive.

Why do these violations occur?

Many times these violations occur because it is very easy to manpulate the internet today. Computers have become a greta part of our lives today. It can be very expensive to pay for our day to day lifes let alone also paying for additional resources. While the internet itself is free, many softwares that are needed for education are not free. Money can play a huge role in our society today.

Reduce or Eliminate unethical Behavior

russelma1 — 2024-02-19 03:03:06 UTC

To reduce or elimate this behavior, many programs and software should be made free for students. Students already have so much debt and bills to pay. By making these programs free, it will reduce violations to the Ten Commandments of computer Ethics. Another way to reduce harm to other people would be placing bans on individuals who used social media as a way to target others.
