Which of the Ten Ethical Computing Guidelines do you think students violate most often?

wakelesa — 2025-09-24 22:39:10 UTC

I would say students violate thou shalt not use a computer to harm other the most because of how frequent cyberbullying is. People are constantly spreading hate and being harmful to others through social media posts, comments, and even sending messages.

Why do you think these violations occur?

wakelesa — 2025-09-24 22:41:03 UTC

I think these violations occur because it is much easier to bully someone over the phone for a few reasons; you can hide your identity, you don't have to say it to a persons face, and it takes less effort.

What do you think could be done to reduce or eliminate such unethical behavior?

wakelesa — 2025-09-24 22:42:32 UTC

This violation will be hard to eliminate but one thing the internet has done in order to reduce it is filter out words that can be hurtful.
