2. Choose any two (2) moral theories from chapter 1 in our textbook “Ethics in a Computing Culture” and apply to the ethical dilemma.

GRADING
Late Assignments
– any postings after the cutoff date/time will not be accepted.
Late Joiners
– you must post your comments to allow sufficient time for others to comment. For example:a comment posted less than 24 hoursbefore this assignment is due, will receive a deduction – because little time is available for others to respond.
Content
– This is an on-line discussion that all group members will participate in. Each of you will receive your own grade, based on your input to the criteria listed above. You may wish to respond to several of your classmate’s comments – this might include expanding on their response, or perhaps disagreeing with their comment – in each case you must provide your reasoning for doing so.
Spelling/Grammar
– In this on-line discussion, I do expect proper grammar and spelling to be used. 1 mark will be deducted to a maximum of 3 marks (20% of grade).
