The Social Protector Argument


The Social Protector Argument

Argument
Hackers point out they break into systems to watch for instances of
data abuse and to help keep ’Big Brother’ at bay. The end justifies the
means.
Counterargument
Criminal activity cannot be condoned for the sake of raising awareness.
The proper authorities should make sure proper data protection and
ethics are enforced.
Conclusion of Ethics
In conclusion, we can state that most computer break-ins are unethical.
On the other hand, any system administrator or security administrator
is allowed to hack into his own systems. But why would he? We will
attempt to give some motivations for that in the next paragraph.
