Marlinspike knew that the task he was taking on was surveillance on numerous ways people communicate. He should have known that the government wants to know much as they can from this program. Also he told his blog followers on the Saudi Arabia intentions by creating this type of program. Marlinspike did not have permission from the government to tell the entire world. He could have been telling classified information to the entire world. The decision I would make is by helping the Saudi Arabia make a good surveillance program. I think that my personal code of caring would go great in this situation. I know that this technology is going to be used to track down terrorists. I know that it’s wrong to spy on people and collect data won them without their permission. I personal support the Utilitarian ethic on this situation. Yes it true that some people might be hurt by this program but the greater good is that people are going to be safe. My values taught me it’s important to help people for a greater cause even thought it might hurt

    Ethical principles are not laws, but guiding principles about what is good and what is bad, that should direct doctors and other health care professionals in their work and decision making. Issues arising over end-of-life care involving decisions that affect the nature and timing of an individual's death raise difficult ethical conflicts for all concerned and can be a source of discord between health professionals within a team, health professionals and family members, or between different family members. Ethical dilemmas arise when there is a perceived conflicting duty to the patient, such as a conflict between a duty to preserve life and a duty to act in a patient's best interests, or when an ethical principle such as respect for autonomy conflicts with a duty not to…

    In this paper, we are going to present an analysis regarding medical ethics, specifically Euthanasia and we will try to describe the position of a Consequentialist, Deontologist, and Virtue ethics philosophers and what their decision will be in reference to this dilemma. Subsequently we will compare and choose which position is the most appropriate to handle this ethical dilemma and explain why the others positions do not work. We will do our best to present enough evidence to support the reasoning behind our selection. Anything that involves a decision about ending a person’s life regardless of the circumstances, presents ethical dilemmas on how or why this can be done or even worse accepted.…

    I. Physician-assisted suicide, under various names and colloquial definitions, has been a documented ethical issue for centuries – not to mention an undocumented ethical issue since the hypothetical dawn of life. By common understanding, physician-assisted suicide is death either directly or indirectly permitted or carried out by a physician. In simple terms, an “out” is provided. For this reason, it is often associated with chronic pain or terminal illness. Suicide where the doctor in charge is directly involved is perhaps the first situation which comes to mind when one thinks of euthanasia.…

    I think that everyone in society could collectively be more ethical by simply being more polite to one another. People tend to disregard the less fortunate in life, looking down on them, and seeing them as a disgrace to society. If people were to look at one another as they were equal, instead of judging them based on their social standing or religious beliefs, then the world would run more smoothly. The world wouldn’t be run on racism, war, segregation, and…

    Since Beauchamp and Childress wrote The Principles of Biomedical Ethics in 1977, patient autonomy, justice, non-maleficence and beneficence have been accepted as the four major medical principles (Murgic, 2015). In my opinion, autonomy is the hardest principle to implement especially in end-of-life care. I am reflecting on the Charlie Gard case where a healthy baby boy was born and it was soon discovered he had a rare genetic mutation that affected his brain, his musculature and most other major organs. The health care team reviewed the potential outcomes for this baby and decided that the best option was to allow him to “die with dignity”, remove life support and not pursue any untested experimental treatment. This could have been the end…

    Actions that are right or wrong is all a matter of a difference of opinion amongst individuals. What they learn from their family, where they grew up, what institutions they attend, their religious views, and their reflection of themselves and the world around them, all influence their morals and ethical beliefs. New ideas are constantly emerging causing us to consistently review and reconsider our beliefs. One idea that emerged and caused ethical consideration is the goal of keeping ill persons alive. This first came in the nineteenth century and has since given rise to moral questions on the care for patients.…
