Three precepts on computer use
“Thou shalt not use a computer to harm other people.”
I think the ethical theory that underpins this precept is Ethical Absolutism. Ethical Absolutism state that there should be fixed or rigid factors in evaluating actions. Fixed factors are universal, constant and therefore unchanging reasons for judging an action as good or bad, right or wrong, just or unjust, among others. Doing harm to other people is universal or a fixed/rigid factor that can be used to evaluate an action.
“Thou shalt not use a computer to bear false witness.”
Moral law underpins this percept. Moral law dictates what sort of behavior or conduct that may or may not be expressed. It is the realm of generally recognized and desirable ethical norms and principles that control and rule the human conduct. Honesty, integrity and respect are moral conducts.
“Thou shalt not use a computer to steal.”
Utilitarianism underpins this precept. Utilitarianism states that actions that bring happiness are considered morally right while actions that inhibit happiness are considered morally wrong. Stealing is an action that inhibits happiness or stealing will result to pain or the reverse of happiness.
