At lunch yesterday, several peoplewere discussing ethical issues.You learned that some of them belongto IT organizations that have ethical codes to guide members andset professional standards. For example, Ann, your supervisor,belongs to the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), which hasover 100,000 members from more than 100 countries and a Web site atacm.org. Ann said that the ACM code of ethics is important to her,and would definitely influence her views.
